"The question I ask myself like almost every day is: ‘Am I doing the most important thing I could be doing?' Unless I feel like I’m working on the most important problem that I can help with, then I’m not going to feel good about how I’m spending my time. And that’s what this company is." Mark Elliot Zuckerberg

"Science today is locked into paradigms. Every avenue is blocked by beliefs that are wrong, and if you try to get anything published by a journal today, you will run against a paradigm and the editors will turn it down." Sir Fred Hoyle

Albert Einstein quote about science, coordinate systems, and perspectiveCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
""The struggle, so violent in the early days of science, between the views of Ptolemy and Copernicus would then be quite meaningless. Either CS [coordinate system] could be used with equal justification. The two sentences, “the Sun is at rest and the Earth moves,” or “the Sun moves and the Earth is at rest,” would simply mean two different conventions concerning two different CS."" Albert Einstein

Quote by Anita Hofmann about the true purpose of education and citizenshipCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"This is about: What is actually best for children and young people? And how do they get their education and how do they become citizens? Because that is also the goal of our schooling, that I am an educated person who can also fulfill my civic duties and for that I need appropriate behavior and I learn that not only explicitly through knowledge, but also implicitly by practicing a state on a small scale, namely at school." Anita Hofmann

"You imagine that I look back on my life’s work with calm satisfaction. But from nearby it looks quite different. There is not a single concept of which I am convinced that it will stand firm, and I feel uncertain whether I am in general on the right track." Albert Einstein

Quote about good citizens and uniformity in education by Henry Louis MenckenCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"And what is a good citizen? Simply one who never says, does or thinks anything that is unusual. Schools are maintained in order to bring this uniformity up to the highest possible point. A school is a hopper into which children are heaved while they are still young and tender; therein they are pressed into certain standard shapes and covered from head to heels with official rubber-stamps." Henry Louis Mencken

Neil deGrasse Tyson quote about science and the universeCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"So, what you learn when you study science in general, but astrophysics especially, is that you no longer invoke your senses to judge what makes sense, or you no longer invoke your personal philosophies to judge what should be true. The universe is what it is, and it really doesn't care about your senses." Neil deGrasse Tyson

Quote about the hunt for stellar parallax and the shift from Ptolemaic to Copernican systems by Alan HirshfeldCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"In Newton’s day, the Ptolemaic system and the Keplerian version of the Copernican system were taught side by side in the universities of the world. But the pendulum of belief had swung irreversibly to the Copernican side. In the minds of most scientists, the heliocentric universe had become fact…Yet there remained a crucial missing element in what was otherwise a complete and compelling picture of the universe: Not one shred of indisputable observational proof existed that the Earth moved through space.Here then was the holy grail of many an astronomer. To prove that the Earth in fact revolved in a wide orbit around the Sun, the parallax of just one star – any star – had to be detected. The hunt for stellar parallax was on." Alan Hirshfeld

Quote by Edwin Powell Hubble about the improbability of a privileged place in the universeCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Such a condition would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central earth. The hypothesis cannot be disproved but it is unwelcome and would be accepted only as a last resort in order to save the phenomena. [...] But the unwelcome supposition of a favoured location must be avoided at all costs." Edwin Powell Hubble

Quote by Stephen William Hawking about the universe and our place in itCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Now at first sight, all this evidence that the universe looks the same whichever direction we look in might seem to suggest there is something special about our place in the universe. In particular, it might seem that if we observe all other galaxies to be moving away from us, then we must be at the center of the universe. There is, however, an alternate explanation: the universe might look the same in every direction as seen from any other galaxy too. This, as we have seen, was Friedmann’s second assumption. We have no scientific evidence for, or against, this assumption. We believe it only on grounds of modesty" Stephen William Hawking

"Rivers do not drink their own water; trees do not eat their own fruit; the sun does not shine on itself and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We are all born to help each other. No matter how difficult it is...Life is good when you are happy; but much better when others are happy because of you." Unbekannt

Quote about vaccinations by Dr. med. Gerhard BuchwaldCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"Today's vaccinations are based on the same flawed scientific experiments as the smallpox vaccination. Yet we are told that science has made progress. With a single scientific paper confirming the vaccination theory, my book "The Business of Fear" would have had to be permanently removed from the market." Dr. med. Gerhard Buchwald

"In der Tat wird es immer offensichtlicher, dass nicht Hungersnöte, nicht Erdbeben, nicht Mikroben, nicht Krebs, sondern der Mensch selbst die größte Gefahr für den Menschen darstellt, und zwar aus dem einfachen Grund, dass es keinen angemessenen Schutz gegen psychische Epidemien gibt, die unendlich viel verheerender sind als die schlimmsten Naturkatastrophen" Carl Gustav Jung

"All parties in industrialized countries, whether right or left, will adopt the CO2 global warming theory. This is a unique opportunity to tax the air we breathe. Because they supposedly save the world from a heat death, politicians even receive applause for it. No party will resist this temptation." Nigel Calder

"Auch wenn es sicher richtig ist, daß eine radikale eugenische Politik für viele Jahre politisch und psychologisch unmöglich sein wird, wird es für die UNESCO wichtig sein, dafür zu sorgen, daß das eugenische Problem mit der größten Sorgfalt geprüft und die Öffentlichkeit über das fragliche Thema informiert wird, damit vieles, was heute undenkbar erscheint, wenigstens wieder denkbar wird." Julian Huxley

"The implications of transferring full sovereignty from individual nations to a world organization. Political unity in some form of world government will be necessary. Even if... any radical eugenic policy will be politically and psychologically impossible for many years, one must proceed with utmost care and inform the public about the issues at stake, so that much of what is now unthinkable may at least become thinkable." Julian Huxley

Psychological manipulation and fear quote by Joost A.M. MeerlooCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"In order to tame people into the desired pattern, victims must be brought to a point where they have lost their alert consciousness and mental awareness. Freedom of discussion and free intellectual exchange hinder conditioning. Feelings of terror, feelings of fear and hopelessness, of being alone, of standing with one's back to the wall, must be instilled" Joost A.M. Meerloo

"Anyone who talks about a “liberal state” or even a “constitutional state” misunderstands reality: There is no state without domination. There are only states based on power – and the question is how many freedoms they allow at any given time out of opportunism." Roland Baader

Quote by Sir Josiah Stamp about the power and control of bankers over money and societyCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin... Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them but leave them the power to create money, and, with the flick of a pen, they will create enough money to buy it back again... Take this great power away from them and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for then this would be a better and happier world to live in... But, if you want to continue to be a slave of the bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let the bankers continue to create money and control credit." Sir Josiah Stamp

John Swinton quote on the lack of independent press in AmericaCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"There is no such thing, at this stage of the world’s history in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dare write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my papers, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." John Swinton

"Our monetary system gives rise to capitalism, interest, mass poverty, revolt, and ultimately civil war, which leads back to barbarism. Anyone who prefers to exercise their own mind rather than smash the heads of others should study the nature of money." Silvio Gesell

Quote by Edward Mandell House about control, registration, and social insuranceCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"[Very] soon, every American will be required to register their biological property in a National system designed to keep track of the people and that will operate under the ancient system of pledging. By such methodology, we can compel people to submit to our agenda, which will affect our security as a chargeback for our fiat paper currency. Every American will be forced to register or suffer not being able to work and earn a living. They will be our chattel, and we will hold the security interest over them forever, by operation of the law merchant under the scheme of secured transactions. Americans, by unknowingly or unwittingly delivering the bills of lading to us will be rendered bankrupt and insolvent, forever to remain economic slaves through taxation, secured by their pledges. They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser, for not one man in a million could ever figure our plans and, if by accident one or two would figure it out, we have in our arsenal plausible deniability. After all, this is the only logical way to fund government, by floating liens and debt to the registrants in the form of benefits and privileges. This will inevitably reap to us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor or to this fraud which we will call “Social Insurance.” Without realizing it, every American will insure us for any loss we may incur and in this manner; every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly. The people will become helpless and without any hope for their redemption and, we will employ the high office of the President of our dummy corporation to foment this plot against America." Edward Mandell House
