Black Americans must be obedient liberals on all things or risk being called a race traitor or an Uncle Tom. Juan Williams

education opportunity discovery
The kind of knowledge which is supported only by observations and is not yet proved must be carefully distinguished from the truth; it is gained by induction, as we usually say. Yet we have seen cases in which mere induction led to error. Therefore, we should take great care not to accept as true such properties of the numbers which we have discovered by observation and which are supported by induction alone.
