1) It is sweet and honourable to die for one's country  2) All human beings, as we meet them, are commingled out of good and evil: and Edward Hyde, alone in the ranks of mankind, was pure evil. 3) Evil … had left on that body an imprint of deformity and decay. And yet when I looked upon that ugly idol in the glass, I was conscious of no repugnance, rather of a leap of welcome. This, too, was myself. It seemed natural and human. 4) Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots, // But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame, all blind;// Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots// Of gas-shells dropping softly behind. 5) “History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right”. (George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four)  6) Now my belief is that this poet who never wrote a word and was buried at the cross–roads still lives. She lives in you and in me, and in many other women who are not here to–night, for they are washing up the dishes and putting the children to bed. But she lives; for great poets do not die; they are continuing presences; they need only the opportunity to walk among us in the flesh. 7) If you are a scientist you cannot stop such a thing. If you are a scientist you believe that it is good to find out how the world works; that it is good to find out what the realities are; that it is good to turn over to mankind at large the greatest possible power to control the world. (Robert Oppenheimer, on the atomic bomb project)
