Albert Camus
“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”
Albert Camus

H.L. Mencken
“Civilization, in fact, grows more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. Wars are no longer waged by the will of superior men, capable of judging dispassionately and intelligently the causes behind them and the effects flowing out of them. They are now begun by first throwing a mob into a panic; they are ended only when it has spent its ferine fury.”
H.L. Mencken, In Defense of Women

H.L. Mencken
“A good politician is quite as unthinkable as an honest burglar.”
H.L. Mencken

Plato
“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
Plato

Albert Camus
“The welfare of humanity is always the alibi of tyrants.”
Albert Camus
