"Government is the shadow cast by business over society." John Dewey
"The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting." Milan Kundera
"The country was founded on the principle that the primary role of government is to protect property from the majority, and so it remains" Noam Chomsky
"Patriotism in its simplest, clearest, and most indubitable signification is nothing else but a means of obtaining for the rulers their ambitions and covetous desires, and for the ruled the abdication of human dignity, reason, and conscience, and a slavish enthralment to those in power. And as such it is recommended wherever it is preached. Patriotism is slavery." Tolstoy
