The opponents of this process have always tried to vilify westernization as a poor imitation.

Max Planck, German Scientist (1858-1947)

Max Planck, German Scientist (1858-1947)
A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.
Max Planck, German Scientist (1858-1947)

Harry Shearer, American Actor (1943-  )
I understand the harsh feelings and sentiments from my opponents and their supporters because I myself have been defeated twice in my political life in the past and I understand very well it is hard to accept your own failure.
