[to] Interpret Parmenides As A Kant Before

If We Are Not Prepared To Defend A Tolerant Society Against The Onslaught Of The Intolerant, Then The Tolerant Will Be Destroyed, And Tolerance With Them.

Philosophy Is A Necessary Activity Because We, All Of Us, Take A Great Number Of Things For Granted, And Many Of These Assumptions Are Of A Philosophical Character; We Act On Them In Private Life, In Politics, In Our Work, And In Every Other Sphere Of Our Lives -- But While Some Of These Assumptions Are No Doubt True, It Is Likely, That More Are False And Some Are Harmful. So The Critical Examination Of Our Presuppositions -- Which Is A Philosophical Activity -- Is Morally As Well As Intellectually Important.

Serious Rational Criticism Is So Rare That It Should Be Encouraged. Being Too Ready To Defend Oneself Is More Dangerous Than Being Too Ready To Admit A Mistake.

We Do Not Know. We Can Only Guess.

While Differing Widely In The Various Little Bits We Know, In Our Infinite Ignorance We Are All Equal.
