Modernity the child of ordtak
 Modernity, the child of the Enlightenment, failed when it became apparent that the good society cannot be achieved by unaided reason. |
Robert Bork (1927-)
| We failed, but in the good providence of God apparent failure often proves a blessing. |

| Our society is the product of several great religious and philosophical traditions. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans, Christianity, Judaism, humanism and the Enlightenment have made us who we are. |
| It quickly became apparent that the safeguards put in place to protect public money had failed. |
| The apparent inconsistent reports certainly give us cause to look at the insurance company's denial of payment with a jaded eye. There's good reason to scrutinize. |
| There is no human reason why a child should not admire and emulate his teacher's ability to do sums, rather than the village bum's ability to whittle sticks and smoke cigarettes. The reason why the child does not is plain enough -- the bum has put himself on an equality with him and the teacher has not. |
Floyd Dell (1887-)
| He said he should be judged by the results he's achieved ... and according to that test, he's failed in his first year. |
| It [the Enlightenment] is clearly the foundation of the modern world. Almost everything we are arguing about at the moment - whether it's the religious hatred law and free speech, immigration, the movement of peoples, goods and services and what that does to national identity, or the proper limits of the state - go back to the positions first set out in the Enlightenment. |
| I think parents are very good at saying, my child is a bright child, or my child is good at thinking outside the box. You have to look at the question of, does my child need a program like this? |

| Private schools prop up the class system in society. It is inconsistent, to put it mildly, for someone who believes in a fairer and more egalitarian society to send their child to a fee-paying school. But I had to choose between my reputation as a politician and my son. |
