Better contraceptives will control population only if people will use them. A nuclear holocaust can be prevented only if the conditions under which nations make war can be changed. The environment will continue to deteriorate until pollution practices are abandoned. We need to make vast changes in human behavior.

If the world is to save any part of its resources for the future, it must reduce not only consumption but the number of consumers.

The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do.

Men build society and society builds men.

Give me a child and I'll shape him into anything.

The simplest and most satisfactory view is that thought is simply behavior - verbal or nonverbal, covert or overt. It is not some mysterious process responsible for behavior but the very behavior itself in all the complexity of its controlling relations.

To say that... behaviors have different 'meanings' is only another way of saying that they are controlled by different variables.
