I engaged in discussions with him and many of these scholars who visited and came around the dining table, the lunch table, and attended many lectures with my dad.

What is needed desperately today is prophetic insight. Scholars can interpret the past; it takes prophets to interpret the present Picture Quote #1

The poor yield to the rich, the common people to the upper ten, the servants to their masters, the ignorant to the scholars; but there is nobody who does not imagine that he is really better than others Picture Quote #1

Scholars who become politicians are usually assigned the comic role of having to be the good conscience of state policy Picture Quote #1

The world’s great men have not commonly been great scholars, nor its great scholars great men Picture Quote #1
