War and occupation create innocent victims. We count the body bags of American soldiers; there have been more than 1000 in Iraq. The rest of the world also looks at the Iraqis who get killed daily. There have been 15 times more. Some were trying to kill our soldiers; far too many were totally innocent, including many women and children. Every innocent death helps the terrorists' cause by stirring anger against America and bringing them potential recruits.

Additional quotes by George Soros

Az adott társadalmi szituációk résztvevőiként mindannyiunknak rendelkeznünk kell bizonyos nézetekkel, amelyek alapján cselekszünk. De milyen alapon cselekedjünk, amennyiben elfogadjuk, hogy nézeteink nagy valószínűséggel tévesek, de legalábbis a valóság hiányos vetületei. A válasz ugyanaz, mint amit Popper adott a tudományos módszerre: nézeteinket átmeneti igazságokként kell kezelni, és közben biztosítani kell az állandó felülvizsgálatot. Ez a nyílt társadalom alaptétele.

On the abstract level, I have turned the belief in my own fallibility into the cornerstone of an elaborate philosophy. On a personal level, I am a very critical person who looks for defects in myself as well as in others. But, being so critical, I am also quite forgiving. I couldn't recognize my mistakes if I couldn't forgive myself. To others, being wrong is a source of shame; to me, recognizing my mistakes is a source of pride. Once we realize that imperfect understanding is the human condition, there is no shame in being wrong, only in failing to correct our mistakes.
