Thoughts for Today
* * * * * * 31.
"For the great majority of mankind are satisfied with appearances, as
though they were realities, and are often more influenced by the things
that seem than by those that are." 30.
"Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad." 29.
"It is hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head." 28. Whenever a people... entrust the defence of
their country to a regular, standing army, composed of
mercenaries, the power of that country will remain under the
direction of the most wealthy citizens.": 27.
"As I watch government at all levels daily eat away at our freedom, I
keep thinking how prosperity and government largesse have combined to
make most of us fat and lazy and indifferent to, or actually in favor
of, the limits being placed on that freedom." 26.
You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality.
Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it 25.
“...free enterprise, [is] a term that refers, in practice, to a system
of public subsidy and private profit, with massive government
intervention in the economy to maintain a welfare state for the rich.”
24.
"No man survives when freedom fails, The best men rot in filthy jails,
And those who cry 'appease, appease' Are hanged by those they tried to
please." 23.
"Today the tyrant rules not by club or fist, but, disguised as a market
researcher, he shepherds his flocks in the ways of utility and comfort."
22.
War would end if the dead could return 21.
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such
time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic
and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for
the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the
truth is the greatest enemy of the State." 20.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be
the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than
under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may
sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those
who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do
so with the approval of their own conscience 19.
"The law does
not pretend to punish everything that is dishonest. That would seriously
interfere with business" 18.
"How does it become a man to behave toward the American government
today? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it.
" 17.
The history of Liberty is a history of the limitations of
governmental power not the increase of it 16.
"We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home." 15.
He does not believe who does not live according to his belief 14.
"In my opinion, a mind is healthy when it can perform symbolic acts
within mental frameworks which are not immediately obvious. A mind is
diseased when it no longer comprehends this kind of linkage and refuses
to acknowledge any basis for such symbolic thinking. The twentieth
century specializes in producing diseased minds of the type I refer to -
minds which uniquely combine ignorance with arrogance. The twentieth
century's hard core hyper rationalist would deride a theory of
correspondences in daily life and ritual as 'primitive superstition'.
However, the rationalist's comment is not one upon symbolic thinking but
upon himself, acting as a label to define him as one of the walking
dead." 13.
The history of our race, and each individual's experience, are sown
thick with evidence that a truth is not hard to kill and that a lie told
well is immortal 12.
"Sometimes I think the surest sign that
intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has
tried to contact us." 11.
We Americans have no commission from God to police the world 10.
Unless you become more watchful in your States and check this spirit of
monopoly and thirst for exclusive privileges, you will in the end find
that the most important powers of Government have been given or bartered
away, and the control of your dearest interests have been passed into
the hands of these corporations 9.
"Government is the Entertainment Division of the military-industrial
complex." 8.
"One of the greatest delusions in the world is the hope that the evils
in this world are to be cured by legislation." 7.
"The world is too terrible a place to live in, not because of the bad
things that happen, but because of the good people who stand by and do
nothing." 6. 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 murder is less to
fear. 5.
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the
government fears the people, there is liberty 4.
"All war is based on deception." 3.
"False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul
with evil." 2. "The
trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool." 1.
Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in
government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is
the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people
