“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency first by inflation then by deflation the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered...

The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs.”
― Thomas Jefferson

“Do a loony-goony dance
'Cross the kitchen floor,

― Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic

“But lo! men have become the tools of their tools.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden & Civil Disobedience

“If you're not going to use your free speech to criticize your own government, then what the hell is the point of having it?”
