Just a quote I like...

[yumeki]

A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: And a people who mean to be their own Governors, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.

James Madison

Conceptually stolen from a century and a half earlier Francis Bacon. I know you like philosophy, so if you haven't read up on Francis Bacon; please do take the time to do so. I think you will enjoy him.
