Christopher Hitchens, 1949 - 2011

«If I come up against a pile of evidence, that makes seem my first assumption was untrue, I would rather change the assumption, than try to change the evidence. ... But I do know that for a lot of people that isn't easy. They would rather continue battering themselves against the pile of evidence.»

Christopher Hitchens in Conversations with History, 2002
