Fascist Thinking and Power – Quote by Henry A. Wallace
“The symptoms of fascist thinking are colored by environment and adapted to immediate circumstances. But always and everywhere they can be identified by their appeal to prejudice and by the desire to play upon the fears and vanities of different groups in order to gain power.”
Henry A. Wallace
Courage and Individuality Quote by Lothar Zenetti
“Dare what no one dares, speak what no one says, think what no one thinks, do what no one does. If no one says yes, you should say yes; if no one says no, then say no. When everyone doubts, dare to believe; when everyone joins in, stand alone. Where everyone praises, have doubts; where everyone mocks, do not mock; where everyone is stingy, dare to give; where all is dark, bring light!”
Lothar Zenett

David Icke Quote on Success and Social Appreciation
“A friend at school was always being laughed at because his father emptied dustbins for a living. But those who laughed worshipped famous footballers. This is an example of our topsy-turvy view of ‘success.’ Who would we miss most if they did not work for a month, the footballer or the garbage collector?”
David Icke
Balanced Budget and Money Creation in the USA – Quote by James M. Buchanan
“I have long been in favor of a balanced budget restriction at the level of the federal government of the United States. Because the federal government has money-creating powers it can, in fact, be very damaging if it runs a series of budget deficits. With the state government in the United States, they don’t have money-creating powers. The automatic discipline imposed by the fact that they are in a common monetary unit and don’t have control over the money power means that the balanced budget restriction is less needed.”
James M. Buchanan
Quote by David Icke on Abundance and Freedom
“Abundance = choice = freedom. Scarcity = dependence = control.”
David Icke
Quote by James M. Buchanan on Fiscal Capacity and Immigration
“We want to limit the exploitation of the fiscal capacity of the richer regions by keeping down the rate of immigration to a level that would be meaningful and efficient. One way to do that is to have a scheme of equalization which essential bribes people to stay in the poorer regions.”
James M. Buchanan
Quote by Gore Vidal on Life, Death and Superstition
“Life will be wonderful when men no longer fear dying. When the last superstitions are thrown out and we meet death with the same equanimity as life. No longer will children’s minds be twisted by evil gods whose fantastic origin is in those barbaric tribes who feared death and lightning, who feared life. That’s it: life is the villain to to those who preach reward in death, through grace and eternal bliss, or through dark revenge.”
Gore Vidal
