Hi Carl. The following are a few of quotes about “common sense” I found on web. Some of the things I thought about after finding some of the things I found. The time in which the quoted person lived. If that person could be brought forth to this time period, would the quote be the same? If not, what might change? The written language of the quote. Did the translation change it, or was it translated word for word? Perhaps the most important. Are they actual quotes or just made -up and attributed to someone who had lived. Or perhaps the preceding was the least important.
“Common sense is the most widely shared commodity in the world, for every man is convinced that he is well supplied with it.” ― Rene Descartes 1596-1650 French mathematician, scientist, and philosopher
“Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.” - Albert Einstein 1879- 1955 German-born theoretical physicist
This elusive system called government is not an A.I., an Artificial Intelligence system devoid of emotions, opinions and lacking the buttery fly wings of an ego. Government is made up of people, we all have emotions, opinions, egos and a rational self-interest which at times may seem irrational to others. So, it is not government that lacks this enigmatic thing called “common sense”, the lack is within us.
“No one likes to pay parking fines and the city most certainly doesn’t like to issue parking tickets,” said Mayor S. William Collins. “But with business being back to normal, the city needs to ensure that our downtown businesses have spaces available for their customers to park while they shop as well as for visitors who come to the city for any events.”
