The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher
esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

Ah yes... long one of my favorites, inasmuch as that is an intelligible notion seeing as I like so very much of Nietzsche. One that I've been reviewing only recently in other contexts:

What then is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms: in short, a sum of human relations which have been poetically and rhetorically intensified, transferred, and embellished, and which, after long usage, seem to a people to be fixed, canonical, and binding. Truths are illusions which we have forgotten are illusions—

Missing the opportunity to meet you in person is the one thing I truly regret from not attending C11.

I'm less interesting in person. Trust me. ;-)
