"Moral power is probably best when it is not used. The less you use it the more you have."
- Andrew Young (b. 1932), American Democratic politician and diplomat: in "The Observer" (London), September 8, 1979.

"Psychology, we must remember, is the study of the soul, therefore the discipline closest to the religious life. An authentic psychology discards none of the insights gained from spiritual discipline."
- Theodore Roszak (b. 1933) American social critic: "Where the Wasteland Ends", 1972.

"Why is there invariably something comic about intellectuals when they meet together in crowds."
- Max Frisch (1911 -1991), Swiss dramatist, writer and architect: "Diary", 1948.

"Opinion is made, even created, by the continual pressure of a wild variety of facts, or semi-facts, which vary between the banal and the cosmic, all of which bear in some way on the human situation. How this charivaria of information is transmuted into public opinion is a most mysterious thing."
- James Cameron (1911 - 1985), British journalist: "Point of Departure", 1967.
