More From Albert Schweitzer

Facts are neutral until human beings add their own meaning to those facts. people make their decisions based on what the facts mean to them, not on the facts themselves. the meaning they add to facts depends on their current story … facts are not terribly useful to influencing others. people don’t need new facts—they need a new story.

A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. a man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. a man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true.

Many, and i think the determining, constitutive facts remain outside the reach of the operational concept. and by virtue of this limitation this methodological injunction against transitive concepts which might show the facts in their true light and call them by their true name the descriptive analysis of the facts blocks the apprehension of facts and becomes an element of the ideology that sustains the facts. proclaiming the existing social reality as its own norm, this sociology fortifies in the individuals the "faithless faith" in the reality whose victims they are.

If congress refuses to obey its own rules. if congress refuses to pass a balanced budget. if congress refuses to read the bills. then i say, sweep the place clean, limit their terms, and send them home!

I will continue to fight for legislation that forces congress to read the bills! i will fight for a vote on my bill that calls for a waiting period for each page of legislation. i will continue to object when congress sticks special interest riders on bills in the dead of night! and if congress refuses to obey its own rules, if congress refuses to pass a budget, if congress refuses to read the bills, then i say: sweep the place clean. limit their terms and send them home!

A christian boy or girl can learn mathematics, for example, from a teacher who is not a christian; and truth is truth however learned. but while truth is truth however learned, the bearing of truth, the meaning of truth, the purpose of truth, even in the sphere of mathematics, seem entirely different to the christian from that which they seem to the non-christian; and that is why a truly christian education is possible only when christian conviction underlies not a part but all, of the curriculum of the school.
