Naturally the common people don't want war ... but after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship ... all you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.

- Hermann Göring
In a conversation with US Army Officer Gustave M. Gilbert in Göring's cell during the Nuremberg Trials, April 18, 1946

Today, Americans 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 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 with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. the one thing that 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 their world government.

- Henry Kissinger
Bilderberg Meeting, Evian, France May 21 , 1992.

a pernicious evil, the darkener of mans life,
the disturber of his reason, and common confounder of truth.

My experience of men has neither disposed me to think worse of them, or indisposed me to serve them; nor in spite of failures, which I lament, of errors which I now see and acknowledge; or of the present aspect of affairs; do I despair of the future.

The truth is this: The march of Providence is so slow, and our desires so impatient; the work of progress is so immense and our means of aiding it so feeble; the life of humanity is so long, that of the individual so brief, that we often see only the ebb of the advancing wave and are thus discouraged. It is history that teaches us to hope.

When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.

“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drank, I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, “It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.” – Jack Handy


“A woman drove me to drink, and I hadn’t even the courtesy to thank her.” – W.C. Fields

“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” – Benjamin Franklin

“I drink to make other people interesting.” – George Jean Nathan

“Sir, you are drunk!” and ”Madam, you are ugly. In the morning, I shall be sober.” – Bessie Braddock and Winston Churchill
