There are indeed in gezegde

 There are indeed, in the present corruption of mankind, many incitements to forsake truth: the need of palliating our own faults and the convenience of imposing on the ignorance or credulity of others so frequently occur; so many immediate evils are
  Samuel Johnson

 Why has mankind had such a craving to be imposed upon? Why this lust after imposing creeds, imposing deeds, imposing buildings, imposing language, imposing works of art? The thing becomes an imposition and a weariness at last. Give us things that are alive and flexible, which won't last too long and become an obstruction and a weariness. Even Michelangelo becomes at last a lump and a burden and a bore. It is so hard to see past him.
  D.H. Lawrence

 Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us? / And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.

 Philosophy triumphs easily over past and over future evils, but present evils triumph over philosophy
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 Credulity is the common failing of inexperienced virtue; and he who is spontaneously suspicious may justly be charged with radical corruption
  Samuel Johnson

 There is natural ignorance and there is artificial ignorance. I should say at the present moment the artificial ignorance is about eighty-five per cent.
  Ezra Pound

 The characteristic of the present age is craving credulity
  Benjamin Disraeli

 Ignorance is the mother of all evils
  Michel de Montaigne

 In America, with all of its evils and faults, you can still reach through the forest and see the sun. But we don't know yet whether that sun is rising or setting for our country.
  Dick Gregory

 Reason and Ignorance, the opposites of each other, influence the great bulk of mankind. If either of these can be rendered sufficiently extensive in a country, the machinery of Government goes easily on. Reason obeys itself; and Ignorance submits to whatever is dictated to it.
  Thomas Paine

 You must not know too much or be too precise or scientific about birds and trees and flowers and watercraft; a certain free-margin, and even vagueness - ignorance, credulity - helps your enjoyment of these things.
  Henry David Thoreau

 The worst evils which mankind has ever had to endure were inflicted by bad governments.

 BEFORE pointing to the faults of others, examine yourselves and assure yourselves that you are free from faults. That alone gives you the right; but the wonder is that you discover faults in others only when you have faults in you.

 Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

  Thomas Jefferson

 Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.
  Umberto Eco
