About Me



"A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring."

Alexander Pope

"If a little knowledge is dangerous, where is the man who has so much as to be out of danger?"

Thomas Huxley

"But what is so menacing and dangerous in the fact that people speak, and that their speech proliferates endlessly? Where does the danger lie?"

Michel Foucault , The Order of Discourse.
