    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.”
    —Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

    “The sciences have ever been the surest guides to virtue.”
    —Frances Wright (1795–1852)
