“The truth is that there is no such thing as equality. It does not exist in any physical, material, legal, philosophical, or spiritual sense. One might as usefully attempt to direct the entire efforts of a society's people and institutions towards the well-being of unicorns and fairies. As Martin van Creveld writes in Equality: The Impossible Quest, “Equality is a dream. When we keep in mind the costs that dream demands, the contradictions to which it inevitably leads, and the horrendous amounts of blood that are so often shed in its name, we would be wise to ensure that the quest for it does not become a nightmare”. Or better yet, abandon it altogether.”
― Vox Day, SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police

“Invoking the story of David, Davies implored his students to “imbibe and cherish a public spirit. Serve your generation. Live not for your selves, but the public. Be the servants of the Church; the servants of your Country; the servants of all.” He exhorted them to “esteem yourselves” not by how much “more happy, honourable and important” you can become but by how much “more useful you are!”
― Stephen Fried, Rush: Revolution, Madness, and Benjamin Rush, the Visionary Doctor Who Became a Founding Father

“Friends, remember that you are as honorable as the risk you take for your opinions. —Nassim Nicholas Taleb”
― Vox Day, SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police

“Before some audiences not even the possession of the exactest knowledge will make it easy for what we say to produce conviction. For argument based on knowledge implies instruction, and there are people whom one cannot instruct.”
― Vox Day, SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police

Kevin R.C. Gutzman
“This idea commonly goes by the name “states’ rights” these days. Its opponents have conflated it with power in state governments, and some of those opponents have been so influential that many of federalism’s friends are prone to see it that way too.1 As Jefferson and the like-minded understood it, however, it meant limitation on federal power. Insofar as the US government did not have power, they believed, that power remained in the states as distinct, preexisting political communities”
― Kevin R. C. Gutzman, Thomas Jefferson—Revolutionary: A Radical's Struggle to Remake America
