Enver Hoxha: The American imperialists and Soviet social-imperialists 'explore' outer space allegedly for the 'good of humanity' while their people are impoverished and hungry. They can have their revolution of heavens -- we in Albania have our revolution among men. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4438


Thomas Jefferson: Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day. But a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers (administrations), too plainly proves a deliberate systematic plan of reducing us to slavery. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4439



Thomas Paine: That there are men in all countries who get their living by war, and by keeping up the quarrels of nations, is as shocking as it is true; but when those who are concerned in the government of a country, make it their study to sow discord, and cultivate prejudices between nations, it becomes the more unpardonable.

Quintus Servilius Caepio: "It was never pleasing to the Romans, that a general should be killed by his own soldiers" or in another version more common in modern Portugal and Spain "Rome does not pay traitors who kill their chief". https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4442


Dwight Eisenhower: Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children....This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from an iron cross. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4443








Karl Marx: Development of the productive forces of social labour is the historical task and justification of capital. This is just the way in which it unconsciously creates the material requirements of a higher mode of production. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4449



Plato: When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty, and there is nothing to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4451


Thomas Jefferson: The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4452


General Douglas MacArthur: I am concerned for the security of our great nation, not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4453


Marcus Tullius Cicero: A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4454


Henry Ford: It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4455




Frédéric Bastiat: When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4457




Cornelius Tacitus: To ravage, to slaughter, to usurp under false titles, they call empire; and where they make a desert, they call it peace. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4460

Aurelius Augustinus: He who conceals a useful truth is equally guilty with the propagator of an injurious falsehood. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4462


J. Edgar Hoover: The individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4463


Kurt Nimmo: In America, the criminally insane rule and the rest of us, or the vast majority of the rest of us, either do not care, do not know, or are distracted and properly brainwashed into acquiescence. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4464



Samuel Adams: If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4465


The Declaration of Independence: But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4466






Plato: The people have always some champion whom they set over them and nurse into greatness. ...This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4470
