1984 • George Orwell“I have said that Texas is a state of mind, but I think it is more than that. It is a mystique closely approximating a religion. And this is true to the extent that people either passionately love Texas or passionately hate it and, as in other religions, few people dare to inspect it for fear of losing their bearings in mystery or paradox.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck““If everyone were a driven leader, there would be no one left to be led. If everyone were an enthusiastic entertainer, there would be no one to amuse. And if everyone were a detail-oriented perfectionist, there wouldn’t be anything to keep in order.””
Surrounded by Idiots • Thomas Erikson““The people do not wish to be ruled nor oppressed by the nobles, and the nobles wish to rule and oppress the people.””
