Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
“Young man, the secret of my success is that at an early age I discovered that I was not God.”
― Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Adolf Hitler
“The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.”
― Adolf Hitler

Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
“I detest a man who knows that he knows.”
― Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.

George Bernard Shaw
“In your dread of dictators you established a state of society in which every ward boss is a dictator, every financier a dictator, every private employer a dictator, all with the livelihood of the workers at their mercy, and no public responsibility. And to symbolize this state of things, this defeat of all government, you have set up in New York Harbour a monstrous idol which you call Liberty. The only thing that remains to complete this monument is to put on its pedestal the inscription written by Dante on the gate of Hell ‘All hope abandon, ye who enter here.”
― George Bernard Shaw, The Political Madhouse in America and Nearer Home

Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
“We believed that it was most desirable that the North should win, we believed in the principle that the Union is indissoluable, we, or many of us at least, also believed that the conflict was inevitable, and that slavery had lasted long enough. But we equally believed that those who stood against us held just as sacred conviction that were the opposite of ours, and we respected them as every men with a heart must respect those who give all for their belief.”
― Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
