Michael Crichton

“We are all assumed, these days, to reside at one extreme of the opinion spectrum, or another. We are pro-abortion or anti-abortion. We are free traders or protectionists. We are pro-private sector or pro-big government. We are feminists or chauvinists. But in the real world, few of us holds these extreme views. There is instead a spectrum of opinion”. –Michael Crichton

Booker T. Washington

“I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public”. –Booker T. Washington

Daniel Webster

“Justice, sir, is the great interest of man on Earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together”. –Daniel Webster
