Summary

This quote distinguishes between two concepts of bringing about change. It states that a reform aims to fix wrongdoings or injustices within an existing system, addressing specific abuses and shortcomings. On the other hand, a revolution involves a complete shift in power dynamics, where the existing order is dismantled, and authority changes hands. While both strive for change, a reform seeks to mend while a revolution seeks to transform the entire structure.

Sometimes it's so weird just to do an interview. This morning I was back in my parents' house, with my brother, and we went for a jog together, then had breakfast as a family. And a couple of hours later I'm wearing high heels and a dress and makeup, and talking about my job.

Men rush to California and Australia as if the true gold were to be found in that direction; but that is to go to the very opposite extreme to where it lies. They go prospecting farther and farther away from the true lead, and are most unfortunate when they think themselves most successful.

Our belief is not a belief. Our principles are not a faith.

Our belief is not a belief. Our principles are not a faith. We do not rely soley upon science and reason, because these are necessary rather than sufficient factors, but we distrust anything that contradicts science or outrages reason. We may differ on many things, but what we respect is free inquiry, openmindedness, and the pursuit of ideas for their own sake.
