Quotes

“You know, it's one thing about intellectuals, they prove that you can be absolutely brilliant and have no idea what's going on.”

— Woody Allen 

“So much of left-wing thought is a kind of playing with fire by people who don’t even know that fire is hot.”

— George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist.

“Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality.  But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.”

— Alexis De Tocqueville

“No legislative act contrary to the Constitution can be valid.  To deny this would be to affirm that the deputy (agent) is greater than his principal; that the servant is above the master; that the representatives of the people are superior to the people; that men, acting by virtue of powers may do not only what their powers do not authorize, but what they forbid.  It is not to be supposed that the Constitution could intend to enable the representatives of the people to substitute their will to that of their constituents.  A Constitution is, in fact, and must be regarded by judges as fundamental law.  If there should happen to be a irreconcilable variance between the two, the Constitution is to be preferred to the statute.”

— Alexander Hamilton, Federalist #78

“I pledge allegiance to the official narrative.  And I affirm that our election systems are the only digital systems that are 100% immune from hacking.  I further affirm that there was no election fraud of any kind because we are not allowed to check.  Amen and a woman.”

— Scott Adams

"Most Russians Urban-Americans don't care whether they are ruled by fascists or communists or even Martians as long as they can buy six kinds of sausage lettuce in the store and lots of cheap vodka overpriced gourmet coffee."

General Alexander Lebed Les Bates.

“The problem with Universal Suffrage is that we universally suffer as a result.”

— A Retired Cab Driver

"The Liberals don't understand, when you're in a hole, stop digging."

— Jason Lewis, The Rush Limbaugh Show, September 8, 2000

“For every idealistic peacemaker willing to renounce his self-defence in favour of a weapons-free world, there is at least one warmaker anxious to exploit the other’s good intentions.”

— Margaret Thatcher

"Whenever there is a jackboot stomping on a human face, Pragmatists will advocate compromise with thugs, and Postmodernists will rationalize thug tradition."

— Stephen Grossman 

"Inside every liberal is a totalitarian screaming to get out."

— David Horowitz

“If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.”
