More From J. Edgar Hoover

We said that a single injustice, a single crime, a single illegality, particularly if it is officially recorded, confirmed, a single wrong to humanity, a single wrong to justice and to right, particularly if it is universally, legally, nationally, commodiously accepted, that a single crime shatters and is sufficient to shatter the whole social pact, the whole social contract, that a single legal crime, a single dishonorable act will bring about the loss of ones honor, the dishonor of a whole people. it is a touch of gangrene that corrupts the entire body.

Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.

To the pure geometer the radius of curvature is an incidental characteristic - like the grin of the cheshire cat. to the physicist it is an indispensable characteristic. it would be going too far to say that to the physicist the cat is merely incidental to the grin. physics is concerned with interrelatedness such as the interrelatedness of cats and grins. in this case the "cat without a grin" and the "grin without a cat" are equally set aside as purely mathematical phantasies.

The entire object of true education is to make people not merely do the right things, but enjoy the right things — not merely industrious, but to love industry — not merely learned, but to love knowledge — not merely pure, but to love purity — not merely just, but to hunger and thirst after justice.

Covers, so many covers, so many different, delectable pictures, and although, metaphorically speaking, it is the thing i hate most, when it comes to literature i always judge books by their covers. first the cover will catch my eye, then i read the back of the book, and then finally the first page.

At what point, then, should one resist? when one's belt is taken away? when one is ordered to face into a corner? when one crosses the threshold of one's home? an arrest consists of a series of incidental irrelevancies, of a multitude of things that do not matter, and there seems no point in arguing about one of them individually...and yet all these incidental irrelevancies taken together implacably constitute the arrest.

I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. but let me discriminate what is precious herein. there is in each ofthese works an act of invention, an intellectual step, or short series of steps taken; that act or step is the spiritual act; all the rest is mere repetition of the same a thousand times.
Education Spiritual Taken
One of the saddest lessons of history is this: if we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. we’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. the bamboozle has captured us. it’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.
Taken Science Long
We owe our troops the opportunity to serve in the best-planned, best-equipped, and best-led military force in the world, and we owe them the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they and their families will be taken care of if they sacrifice life, limb or the ability to sleep without war's nightmares. we owe them not just thanks and best wishes, but action, and action in our nation's capital.

I suppose it was that in courtship everything is regarded as provisional and preliminary, and the smallest sample of virtue or accomplishment is taken to guarantee delightful stores which the broad leisure of marriage will reveal. but the door-sill of marriage once crossed, expectation is concentrated on the present. having once embarked on your marital voyage, it is impossible not to be aware that you make no way and that the sea is not within sight-that, in fact, you are exploring an enclosed basin.
