More From Thomas Sowell
- "The march of science and technology does not imply growing intellectual complexity in the lives of most people. It often means the opposite."
- "The big divide in this country is not between Democrats and Republicans, or women and men, but between talkers and doers."
- "Mystical references to society and its programs to help may warm the hearts of the gullible but what it really means is putting more power in the hands of bureaucrats."
