That we have come gezegde

 That we have come as far as we have in forty years [the 1930s to the 1970s] is hopeful, though I believe it is more through the fact that Hitler's excesses made racism poisonous to any humane individual than through our own virtue. That we have much farther to go is incontestable.
  Isaac Asimov

 Bigger Than Hitler is because I made so many more sitcoms than Hitler ever made. It's just vast. Videos of me have been watched in countries that weren't invented when he was around. It's just a fact of who I am.

 To be seventy years young is sometimes for more cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes

 The trouble is that racial stereotypes, unfavourable to everyone but white men of northwest European extraction, were completely accepted, and indeed, scarcely noted in those days of only forty years ago [the 1930s] (except perhaps by the members of the groups victimized thereby).
  Isaac Asimov

 I spoke out recently at a SARI (Sport Against Racism in Ireland) event in Dublin. I had lost my job three months beforehand and I had not really made any statements about that fact so the media were all assembled there. But only one thing was going to make the papers that day. Until then, I never had a problem with racism in football, but what I was going to say was about to be front-page news.

 Leaving aside the exceptional nature of the 1930s, we can see a peak in the film industry's fortunes in the 1960s and 1970s, and a relative decline since then,

 Some entertainers simply don't know much about history. The fact is that there were no Jews in Hitler's hierarchy, the policies of America and Israel are not similar to those of Hitler, and African-American conservatives are not comparable to Nazis.

 These sorts of funds have set themselves up to outperform by virtue of the fact that individual picks can really make a difference.

 I know some things when I start. I know, let's say, that the play is going to be a 1970s or a 1930s play, and it's going to be about a piano, but that's it. I slowly discover who the characters are as I go along.
  August Wilson

 Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the regulation of conscience.
  Adam Smith

 There was England. And then there was the United States. If the pacifist betrayers of the West had not been so powerful in the 1930s and Western governments had confronted Hitler early, 70 million lives would have been saved. Americans would do well to remember this now.

 Some entertainers simply don't know much about history. Such analogies pollute public discourse, by trivializing the brutal horrors committed by the Nazis. Hitler was a maniacal dictator whose regime systematically annihilated six million Jews, and launched a world war that caused the deaths of more than forty million people. How can any reasonable person put Hitler and the Nazis in the same sentence as American or Israeli leaders, or Black conservatives?

 [The Wyman Institute is urging the three entertainers to publicly retract their] inaccurate and hurtful ...

 It's much farther-reaching than me just handing over green dollars at a gas pump. I was around back in the 1970s when there was no gas, so I've been through that before and I know that was not pleasant.
