Quotes by Samuel Cook

“George Vines felvitt a tornya tetejébe, ahol az áruló Cooke feje van kitűzve, meg Harrisoné a Westminster Hall másik oldalán. Innen jól láttam őket, és a szép londoni panorámát is.””

“The people came to Samuel and said: Place a King over us, to guide us.And Samuel said to them: This is what a King will do if he reigns over you: he’ll take your sons and make them run with his chariots and horses. He’ll dispose them however he wants: he’ll make them commanders of thousands or captains of fifties, he’ll send them to plough, to reap, to forge his weapons and his chariots. He’ll take your daughters to make perfume for him, or cook his food or do his baking. He’ll take your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves – oh, he’ll take the very best of those and give them to his cronies. He’ll take much more. A tenth of your grain and your wine – those will go to his favourite aristocrats and faithful servants. Your manservants and your maidservants, your best men, your donkeys – yes, he’ll take those for his own use. He’ll take one tenth of your flocks “and you yourselves will become his slaves. On that day, believe me, you will cry out for relief from this King, the King you asked for, but the Lord will not answer you on that day.But the people would not listen to Samuel. They said: No. Give us a King over us. So that we can be like all the other nations. Give us a King to guide us and lead us into battle.When Samuel heard what the people said, he told it to the Lord.The Lord answered, Give them a King.””

“Many observers of experimental games have interpreted the fact that people sometimes sacrifice material gain in favor of moral sentiment as an indication of irrationality, the term “rationality” being misused as a synonym for “consistent pursuit of self-interest.” But subjects appear to be no less rational when deciding to cooperate and punish than when they compare prices to decide what to cook for dinner””
