    The degree of tolerance attainable at any moment depends on the strain under which society is maintaining its cohesion.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    In the mass of mankind, I fear, there is too great a majority of fools and knaves; who, singly from their number, must to a certain degree be respected, though they are by no means respectable.
