Three Quotes for the Old Man

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good
of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better
to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity
may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us
for our own good will torment us without end for they do so
with the approval of their own conscience."
— C.S. Lewis


" Those who believe in the supremacy of the state and in its
omnipotence over the citizens, be aware - they are the focus
of all evil in this world "
-- Ronald Regan

" Distrust those who have a strong impulse to punish "
-- Nietzsche

" Even when I am dead, I will rise up from the grave to set right things "
-- The Old Man

"If when I die, I am still a dictator, I will
certainly go down into the oblivion of all
dictators. If, on the other hand, I succeed in
establishing a truly stable foundation for
a democratic government, I will live
forever in every home in China."
[Chiang Kai-Shek]
