“It’s every man’s business to see justice done.”
The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes • Arthur Conan Doyle““Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. He sets them to work, he gives back to them the bare minimum that will prevent them from starving, and the rest he keeps for himself.””
Animal Farm • George Orwell“One should never trust a woman who tells one her real age. A woman who would tell one that would tell one anything.”
A Woman of No Importance • Oscar Wilde“An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile — hoping it will eat him last.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill““Look again, and see what will naturally follow if the prisoners are released and disabused of their error. At first, when any of them is liberated and compelled suddenly to stand up and turn his neck round and walk and look towards the light, he will suffer sharp pains; the glare will distress him, and he will be unable to see the realities of which in his former state he had seen the shadows; and then conceive some one saying to him, that what he saw before was an illusion, but that now, when he is approaching nearer to being and his eye is turned towards more real existence, he has a clearer vision,—what will be his reply?””
Republic • Plato
