You know I don't think we need the Republicans to steal family values from us.

The very desire for guarantees that our values are eternal and secure in some objective heaven is perhaps only a craving for the certainties of childhood or the absolute values of our primitive past.
Isaiah Berlin, Russian Philosopher (1909-1997)
All forms of tampering with human beings, getting at them, shaping them against their will to your own pattern, all thought control and conditioning is, therefore, a denial of that in men which makes them men and their values ultimate.
Isaiah Berlin, Russian Philosopher (1909-1997)
First, he must hold rational values, and to do this he must be a thinker.
Andrew Bernstein, American Philosopher (1949-  )

Andrew Bernstein, American Philosopher (1949-  )
