Society can and does execute its own mandates， and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right， or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle， it practices a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression， since， though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties， it leaves fewer means of escape， penetrating much more deeply into the details of life， and enslaving the soul itself.

The concept of progress is inseparable from the concept of catastrophe.

科学是现实的诗歌。

Leadership is not about being in charge. It's about taking care of those in your charge.
