More quotes by Isaac Asimov
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
Isaac Asimov
There was this superstitious fear on the part of the pygmies of the present for the relics of the giants of the past.
Isaac Asimov
There are many aspects of the universe that still cannot be explained satisfactorily by science but ignorance implies only ignorance that may someday be conquered. To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today.
Isaac Asimov
Now any dogma, based primarily on faith and emotionalism, is a dangerous weapon to use on others, since it is almost impossible to guarantee that the weapon will never be turned on the user.
Isaac Asimov
Society is much more easily soothed than one's own conscience.
Isaac Asimov
Past glories are poor feeding.
Isaac Asimov
Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is.
Isaac Asimov
It is precisely because it is fashionable for Americans to know no science, even though they may be well educated otherwise, that they so easily fall prey to nonsense.
Isaac Asimov
Only a lie that wasn't ashamed of itself could possibly succeed.
Isaac Asimov
I am not responsible for what other people think. I am responsible only for what I myself think, and I know what that is. No idea I've ever come up with has ever struck me as a divine revelation. Nothing I have ever observed leads me to think there is a God watching over me.
Isaac Asimov
It seems to me that God is a convenient invention of the human mind
Isaac Asimov
When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.
Isaac Asimov
Self-education is a continuing source of pleasure to me, for the more I know, the fuller my life is and the better I appreciate my own existence
Isaac Asimov
It is change continuing change, inevitable change that is the dominant factor in society today.
Isaac Asimov
I figure that if God actually does exist, he is big enough to understand an honest difference of opinion.
Isaac Asimov
Korell is that frequent phenomenon in history : the republic whose ruler has every attribute of the absolute monarch but the name. It therefore enjoyed the usual despotism unrestrained even by those two moderating influences in the legitimate monarchies: regal honor and court etiquette.
Isaac Asimov
Having reached 451 books as of now doesn't help the situation. If I were to be dying now, I would be murmuring, Too bad! Only four hundred fifty-one. (Those would be my next-to-last words. The last ones will be: I love you, Janet.) [They were. -Janet.]
Isaac Asimov
You show me someone who can't understand people and I'll show you someone who has built up a false image of himself.
Isaac Asimov
I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.
Isaac Asimov
Courtiers don't take wagers against the king's skill. There is the deadly danger of winning.
Isaac Asimov
