Isaiah Berlin Quotes

Happy Are Those Who Live Under A Discipline Which They Accept Without Question, Who Freely Obey The Orders Of Leaders, Spiritual Or Temporal, Whose Word Is Fully Accepted As Unbreakable Law; Or Those Who Have, By Their Own Methods, Arrived At Clear And Unshakeable Convictions About What To Do And What To Be That Brook No Possible Doubt. I Can Only Say That Those Who Rest On Such Comfortable Beds Of Dogma Are Victims Of Forms Of Self-induced Myopia, Blinkers That May Make For Contentment, But Not For Understanding Of What It Is To Be Human.
