Samuel Johnson: It must be agreed that in most ages many countries have had part of their inhabitants in a state of slavery; yet it may be doubted whether slavery can ever be supposed the natural condition of man. It is impossible not to conceive that men in their original state were equal; and very difficult to imagine how one would be subjected to another but by violent compulsion. An individual may, indeed, forfeit his liberty by a crime; but he cannot by that crime forfeit the liberty of his children. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5465

Samuel Johnson: As the Spanish proverb says, "He, who would bring home the wealth of the Indies, must carry the wealth of the Indies with him." So it is in travelling; a man must carry knowledge with him, if he would bring home knowledge. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5466

Samuel Johnson: I will be conquered; I will not capitulate. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5469

Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld: I have accepted that the word Lockheed will be carved on my tombstone. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5470

Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld: It is difficult to re-educate people who have been educated in nationalism. It is very difficult to convince them to give up part of their sovereignty in favor of a supranational institution. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5471

Friedrich Engels: (W)hen we are in possession of state power we shall not even think of forcibly expropriating the small peasants (regardless of whether with or without compensation), as we shall have to do in the case of the big landowners. Our task relative to the small peasant consists, in the first place, in effecting a transition of his private enterprise and private possession to co-operative ones, not forcibly but by dint of example and the proffer of social assistance for this purpose. And then of course we shall have ample means of showing to the small peasant prospective advantages that must be obvious to him even today. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5472

Benjamin Tucker: To force a man to pay for the violation of his own liberty is indeed an addition of insult to injury. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5473
