"Today, America would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all people of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the world government." Henry Kissinger

"And a liberal state respects bodily integrity absolutely, in the sense that medical treatments may not be carried out against the will of the person concerned. A state that sets out to control the bodies and minds of its citizens is overreaching and acts in a totalitarian manner." Kai Möller
Quote by Wolfgang Streeck about markets deciding economic order and political powerlessnessCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"We don't decide anything. It's decided for us: by the 'markets' and, following their lead, by governments. One has to be careful with language, not to talk oneself into a responsibility one doesn't actually have or that's being taken away from one. 'We' don't need to consider what we'd prefer, because it doesn't matter anyway. Questions of economic order and the distribution of economic benefits are currently decided by summits and central bankers under pressure from large corporations, especially the financial sector. 'We' will only have a say when we understand that, fundamentally, we have no say at all." Wolfgang Streeck
Quote on mental control and perception by Dr. Tim O’SheaCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"The shackles of mental control, perceptual filtering and cultural conditioning are harder to throw off today than ever before. We are the most conditioned, programmed beings the world has ever seen. Not only are our thoughts and attitudes continually being shaped and molded; our entire consciousness seems to be subtly and relentlessly erased. The doors of our perception are carefully and precisely controlled. It is an exhaustive and endless task to constantly explain to people how most things of their everyday wisdom are scientifically planted in the public consciousness via a thousand media clips." Dr. Tim O’Shea
Quote about the majority by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe on a textured backgroundCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"Nothing is more disgusting than the majority: because it consists of a few powerful predecessors, of rogues who adapt themselves, of weak who assimilate themselves, and the masses who imitate without knowing at all what they want." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Quote by Larken Rose about the illusion of government and authorityCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
"The religious belief in authority aims at the enslavement of the mind. It teaches people that it is moral and good to hand over their time, energy, property, freedom, and self-determination to a ruling class. The enslavement of the mind makes the enslavement of the body unnecessary. In truth, the belief in "government" is a religion, made up of a set of dogmatic teachings, irrational doctrines which fly in the face of both evidence and logic, and which are methodically memorized and repeated by the faithful. Like other religions, the gospel of "government" describes a superhuman, supernatural entity, above mere mortals, which issues commandments to the peasantry, for whom unquestioning obedience is a moral imperative."
