Favorite Quotes

Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral. Paulo Freire (1921-1997) Brazilian educator and influential theorist of education.

Being a Liberal sucks. You have to be the good guy. ... you have to fight for the people who are afraid of you. It's a lousy gig. I want to stay home and listen to my Breitbart... and hate people and think it's virtuous. And accuse virtuous people of virtue signalling. Because that's the new thing people with no virtue do. John Fugelsang (dob 9/3/1969) an American actor, television personality and comedian.

There are times in politics when you must be on the right side and lose. John Kenneth Galbraith (1908-2006) Influential Canadian-American economist, Harvard professor and author. A leading proponent of US-style 20th century political liberalism and progressive politics.

It is the impossibility of living by any other means that compels [the common laborers] to go down on their knees to the rich man in order to get from him permission to enrich him... They must therefore find someone to hire them, or die of hunger. Is that to be free? Simon-Nicholas Henri Linguet (1736-1794) as excerpted from a description of wage slavery published by the French journalist in 1763.

In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican. H. L. Mencken (1880-1956) Twentieth-century journalist, satirist and social critic; often regarded as one of the most influential American writers of the early 20th century.

Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives. John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) English philosopher, political economist and influential liberal thinker of the 19th century.

I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them. Adlai Stevenson (1900-1965) Governor of Illinois, campaign remark, Fresno CA (9/10/1952)

The people of this country, not special interest big money, should be the source of all political power. Paul Wellstone (1944-2002) Two-term Democratic Senator from Minnesota.

In the lead up to the Iraq war and its later conduct, I saw at a minimum, true dereliction, negligence and irresponsibility, at worse, lying, incompetence and corruption.
