Quote Zone 1
0,0 von 5Criminals are a small minority in any age or country. And the harm they have done to mankind is infinitesimal when compared to the horrors — the bloodshed, the wars, the persecutions, the confiscations, the famines, the enslavements, the wholesale destructions — perpetrated by mankind’s governments. Potentially, a government is the most dangerous threat to man’s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims. When unlimited and unrestricted by individual rights, a government is men’s deadliest enemy. (Ayn Rand)

Quote Zone 2
0,0 von 5Es ist nicht möglich, daß sich der Ruf des Magiers im Altertum und die Furcht vor der Hexe im Mittelalter ohne irgendeine Erfahrungsbasis aufgebaut haben. Die Prahlereien einer weisen Frau wären nicht mehr beachtet worden als diejenigen des Dorfidioten, wenn darauf niemals schmerzliche Konsequenzen gefolgt wären. Angst war das Motiv dieser Verfolgungen, und zwar gegründet auf bitterer Erfahrung; denn es war nicht die Obrigkeit, welche die Hexenverbrennungen forderte, sondern ganze Landbezirke erhoben sich zum Lynchen. Das universelle Grausen vor der Hexe muß irgendeinen Hintergrund haben. (Dion Fortune)

Quote Zone 3
0,0 von 5"The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and
concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know. (John F. Kennedy)"
