The hundredth time I am right. The trouble is that men very often resort to all sorts of devices in order not to think, because thinking is such hard work. If you make people think they're thinking, they'll love you. If you really make them think, they'll hate you. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions.
Nothing pains some people more than having to think.
People don't ask for facts in making up their minds. They would rather have one good, soul-satisfying emotion than a dozen facts. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man.
