Beth Macy
“But you can't put a corporation in jail; you just take their money, and it's not really their money anyway.”
Beth Macy, Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America

Beth Macy
“Drug overdose had already taken the lives of 300,000 Americans over the past fifteen years, and experts now predicted that 300,000 more would die in only the next five. It is now the leading cause of death for Americans under the age of fifty, killing more people than guns or car accidents, at a rate higher than the HIV epidemic at its peak.”
Beth Macy, Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America

“When children attend schools that place a greater value in discipline and security than on knowledge and intellectual development, they are attending prep schools for prisons.”
Angela Davis

James Baldwin
“Since we live in an age in which silence is not only criminal but suicidal, I have been making as much noise as I can, here in Europe, on radio and television—in fact, have just returned from a land, Germany, which was made notorious by a silent majority not so very long ago.”
James Baldwin

Erich Fromm
“That human nature and society can have conflicting demands, and hence that a whole society can be sick, is an assumption which was made very explicitly by Freud, most extensively in his Civilization and Its Discontent.”
Erich Fromm, The Sane Society
