Quotes by John Derbyshire

“Wherever there is a jackboot stomping on a human face there will be a well-heeled Western liberal to explain that the face does, after all, enjoy free health care and 100 percent literacy.”

“The more depressed and maladjusted you are, the more likely it is that you are seeing things right, with minimal bias”
― John Derbyshire , We Are Doomed: Reclaiming Conservative Pessimism

“The ordinary modes of human thinking are magical, religious, social, and personal. We want our wishes to come true; we want the universe to care about us; we want the approval of those around us; we want to get even with that s.o.b. who insulted us at the last tribal council. For most people, wanting to know the cold truth about the world is way, way down the list.”
― John Derbyshire, We Are Doomed: Reclaiming Conservative Pessimism
