    Jordan B. Peterson
    “Life is suffering
    Love is the desire to see unnecessary suffering ameliorated
    Truth is the handmaiden of love
    Dialogue is the pathway to truth
    Humility is recognition of personal insufficiency and the willingness to learn
    To learn is to die voluntarily and be born again, in great ways and small
    So speech must be untrammeled
    So that dialogue can take place
    So that we can all humbly learn
    So that truth can serve love
    So that suffering can be ameliorated
    So that we can all stumble forward to the Kingdom of God”
    ― Jordan B. Peterson

    “When we honor bad people or avoid good people, we are playing a role in degrading the world around us. It’s a small role, almost negligible. But together, our combined actions are decisive. Each step we take away from loveliness is a step away from civilization. As more and more of us take those steps, our seemingly negligible actions are no longer negligible.”

    “People mistakenly assume that if I’m against government involvement in health care, I must favor an alternative where profits drive decisions and businesses take center stage.
