“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”

“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity.”

“The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone”

"The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about."

"My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and more intelligent than college professors."
Maya Angelou

"The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is."

"Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power."

"He who closes his ears to the views of others shows little confidence in the integrity of his own views”

"A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all-knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity."

I love these.
