There is a cult of ignorance
in the United States, and
there always has been. The
strain of anti-intellectualism
has been a constant thread
winding its way through our
political and cultural life,
nurtured by the false notion
that democracy means that
"my ignorance is just as
good as your knowledge."
- Isaac Asimov
