Politics: “Poli” a Latin word meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "bloodsucking creatures".

- Myron Fagan

What I say is, that the real non-resistants can believe in direct action only, never in political action. For the basis of all political action is coercion; even when the State does good things, it finally rests on a club, a gun, or a prison, for its power to carry them through.

- Voltairine de Cleyre

The government is so out of control. It is so bloated and infested with fraud and deceit and corruption and abuse of power.

- Ted Nugent

Money and corruption are ruining the land, crooked politicians betray the working man, pocketing the profits and treating us like sheep, and we're tired of hearing promises that we know they'll never keep.

- Ray Davies

Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.

- Helen Keller

I prefer to be crazy and happy rather than normal and bitter.

- Paulo Coelho

If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.

- George Orwell

It must be recognised that man in his limited and relative earthly life is capable of bringing about the beautiful and the valuable only when he believes in another life, unlimited, absolute, eternal. That is a law of his being. A contact with this mortal life exclusive of any other ends in the wearing-away of effective energy and a self satisfaction that makes one useless and superficial. Only the spiritual man, striking his roots deep in infinite and eternal life, can be a true creator.

- Nikolai Berdyaev

I am an anarchist! Wherefore I will not rule and also ruled I will not be.

- John Henry Mackay

The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error, if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim.

- Gustave Le Bon
