“Private property ... has led Individualism entirely astray. It has made gain not growth its aim.”

The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde

““It takes a strong mind to move things forward, someone who understands that risks that are part of everyday life and that everything boils down to hard work from morning to night — for many years.””

Surrounded by Idiots • Thomas Erikson

“The characteristic of the hour is that the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be commonplace, has the assurance to proclaim the rights of the commonplace and to impose them wherever it will. As they say in the United States: "to be different is to be indecent." The mass crushes beneath it everything that is different, everything that is excellent, individual, qualified and select. Anybody who is not like everybody, who does not think like everybody, runs the risk of being eliminated. And it is clear, of course, that this "everybody" is not "everybody." "Everybody" was normally the complex unity of the mass and the divergent, specialised minorities. Nowadays, "everybody" is the mass alone.”

the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset

“There is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”

Following the Equator • Mark Twain

“A man of limited vision is hard to bear with in any sphere in which he is invested with power, but intolerable in the army.”

Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig
