Some quotes I like.

There is nothing more frightful than ignorance in action.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.
Stephen Jay Gould


Indifference to evil is more insidious than evil itself. It is a silent justification affording evil acceptability in society.
Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
