“Two things have always been true about human beings. One, the world is always getting better. Two, the people living at that time think it`s getting worse.

“Rousseau has said in his Emile (book iv.): "Even though philosophers should be in a position to discover the truth, which of them would take any interest in it? Each one knows well that his system is not better founded than the others, but he supports it because it is his. …The essential thing is to think differently from others. With believers he is an atheist; with atheists he is a believer."”

Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936) 19th-20th century Spanish writer and philosopher
