George Orwell
“If there really is such a thing as turning in one's grave, Shakespeare must get a lot of exercise.”
George Orwell, All Art is Propaganda: Critical Essays

Chris Hedges
“We extract one hundred tons of coal from the earth every two seconds in the United States, and about seventy percent of that coal comes from strip mines and mountaintop removal, which began in 1970.”
Chris Hedges, Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt

“Indeed we generally remember ancient civilizations best by those buildings which most exploited the labor of ordinary people and most glorified the vanity of a single autocrat.”
Chris Brazier, The No-Nonsense Guide to World History

Johann Hari
“It is a natural human instinct to turn our fears into symbols, and destroy the symbols, in the hope that it will destroy the fear. It is a logic that keeps recurring throughout human history, from the Crusades to the witch hunts to the present day.”
Johann Hari, Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs

“As noted in 1964 by Robert P. “Bob” Moses, director of the Mississippi project of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC): “It’s not contradictory for a farmer to say he’s nonviolent and also pledge to shoot a marauder’s head off.”
Charles E. Cobb, This Nonviolent Stuff'll Get You Killed: How Guns Made the Civil Rights Movement Possible
