Famous quotes containing the words debating and/or society:
“Scepticism, as I said, is not intellectual only; it is moral also; a chronic atrophy and disease of the whole soul. A man lives by believing something; not by debating and arguing about many things. A sad case for him when all that he can manage to believe is something he can button in his pocket, and with one or the other organ eat and digest! Lower than that he will not get.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
“Justice must always question itself, just as society can exist only by means of the work it does on itself and on its institutions.”
—Michel Foucault (1926–1984)
