( Santorum quotes )

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than knowledge.
--Charles Darwin





Imagine being lost in the wilderness with a group of 10. Who is the most confident about which way you should go? Always an interesting test.)

(Didn't mean to but both knowledge and confidence tags just created. Not sure I will ever stop creating new tags, sorry. Follow a parallel tag to track the idea farther back. This journal is a form of mind map.)

the universe and human stupidity.
And I'm not sure about the former.
--Albert Einstein

Everyone is a genius.

--Albert Einstein

Both are worth viewing.
