Theodore Roosevelt: When they call the roll in the Senate, the Senators do not know whether to answer 'Present' or 'Not Guilty'. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5601


Robert A. Heinlein: You can sway a thousand men by appealing to their prejudices quicker than you can convince one man by logic. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5602


James Douglas Morrison: The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5603





Al Capone: This American system of ours,call it Americanism,call it capitalism,call it what you will,gives each and every one of us a great opportunity if we seize it with both hands and make the most of it. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5606

Yasser Arafat: Revolutionary greetings, with sadness and deep sorrow, we learned of the death of Comrade Enver Hoxha, the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Party of Labour of Albania. On behalf of the Palestinian Arab people, on behalf of my brothers, members of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization, and personally, I extend to you, to the government and the Albanian people my sincere condolences. Our Palestinian people, under the leadership of the PLO, will not forget the principled positions of the great leader Enver Hoxha in favour of the just struggle of the Palestinian people to regain their inalienable national rights, including the right to return, self-determination and the establishment of an independent national state on their homeland. Please, dear Comrade Ramiz Alia, convey to the leader's family as well as to your respected government, your great Party, and your friendly people wishes for progress and prosperity under your wise leadership. Revolution until victory. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5608




Noam Chomsky: The point of public relations slogans like "Support Our Troops" is that they don't mean anything ... that's the whole point of good propaganda. You want to create a slogan that nobody is going to be against and I suppose everybody will be for, because nobody knows what it means, because it doesn't mean anything. But its crucial value is that it diverts your attention from a question that does mean something, do you support our policy? And that's the one you're not allowed to talk about. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5609




In terms of bourgeois law, Stalin and other Bolsheviks will always be criminals. Just like Spartacus, who broke the laws of the Roman Empire, was a criminal for slave owners. The ruling class writes the laws. But the truth is that the capitalist system itself is criminal and anti-human. (@upholdreality) https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5611



Issac Newton: A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5613











Issac Newton: If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been due more to patient attention, than to any other talent. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5620



Issac Newton: To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5622


Friedrich Engels: All revolutions up to the present day have resulted in the displacement of the rule of one class by the rule of another; but all ruling classes up to now have been only small minorities in relation to the ruled mass of the people. One ruling minority was thus overthrown; another minority seized the helm of state in its stead and refashioned the state institutions to suit its own interests. Thus on every occasion a minority group was enabled and called upon to rule by the given degree of economic development; and just for that reason, and only for that reason, it happened that the ruled majority either participated in the revolution for the benefit of the former or else simply acquiesced in it. But if we disregard the concrete content in each case, the common form of all these revolutions was that they were minority revolutions. Even when the majority took part, it did so — whether wittingly or not — only in the service of a minority; but because of this, or even simply because of the passive, unresisting attitude of the majority, this minority acquired the appearance of being the representative of the whole people. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5623


Tony Benn: The way a government treats refugees is very instructive because it shows you how they would treat the rest of us if they thought they could get away with it. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5624


Thomas Sowell: When you want to help people, you tell them the truth. When you want to help yourself, you tell them what they want to hear. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5625


Ursula K. Le Guin: To learn which questions are unanswerable, and not to answer them: this skill is most needful in times of stress and darkness. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5626



Alessandro Manzoni: Bullies, oppressors and all men who do violence to the rights of others are guilty not only of their own crimes, but also of the corruption they bring into the hearts of their victims. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5627


Harriet Jacobs: Every where the years bring to all enough of sin and sorrow; but in slavery the very dawn of life is darkened by these shadows. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5628


Walter Rodney: All of the countries named as "underdeveloped" in the world are exploited by others; and the underdevelopment with which the world is now preoccupied is a product of capitalist, imperialist and colonialist exploitation. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5629


Stalin: In our opinion, what has been said needs no proof, for it is self-evident that, so long as the capitalist system exists, with its inevitably attendant poverty and backwardness of the masses, the proletariat as a whole cannot rise to the desired level of class consciousness, and, consequently, there must be a group of class-conscious leaders to enlighten the proletarian army in the spirit of socialism, to unite and lead it in its struggle. It is also clear that a party which has set out to lead the fighting proletariat must not be a chance conglomeration of individuals, but a united centralised organisation, so that its activities can be directed according to a single plan. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5630


Dwight Eisenhower: If in 10 years, all American troops stationed in Europe for national defense purposes have not been returned to the United States, then this whole project will have failed. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5631
