More From Stephen Jay Gould

I pledge to set out to live a thousand lives between printed pages. i pledge to use books as doors to other minds, old and young, girl and boy, man and animal. i pledge to use books to open windows to a thousand different worlds and to the thousand different faces of my own world. i pledge to use books to make my universe spread much wider than the world i live in every day. i pledge to treat my books like friends, visiting them all from time to time and keeping them close.

What orwell feared were those who would ban books. what huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance.

But perhaps the most important difference between conservatives and liberals can be found in the area of national security. conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers. in the wake of 9/11, conservatives believed it was time to unleash the might and power of the united states military against the taliban.

Liberals have a new wish every time their latest wish is granted. conservatives should make them spell out their principles and ideals. instead of doing this, conservatives allow liberals to pursue incremental goals without revealing their ultimate destination. so, thanks to the negligence of their opponents, liberals control the terms of every debate by always demanding 'more' while never defining 'enough.' the predictable result is that they always get more, and it's never enough.

Because when you unite, that is the power of god, you know. god love love, which is unity. so when you unite, you get the whole power of god. that's what him want. until black people unite...if the black people don't unite, the world, no one, no one can live good.
