QUOTES OF THE DAY

“Power tempts even the best of men to take liberties with the truth.”

Joseph Sobran

“A standing military force, with an overgrown executive will not long be safe companions to liberty.”

James Madison

“Men in authority will always think that criticism of their policies is dangerous. They will always equate their policies with patriotism, and find criticism subversive.”

Henry Steele Commager

“The man who puts all the guns and all the decision-making power into the hands of the central government and then says, ‘Limit yourself’; it is he who is truly the impractical utopian.”

Murray Rothbard

“A tyrant is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader.”

Plato

Gallows? No? Umm, firing squad? Not that either? How about…a great retirement plan and a personal security detail? That should teach them.

“I understand the allure of socialism and leftism. I don’t make fun of those who ascribe to them or their thoughts. I just encourage everyone to channel who he is meant to be — not the child he always carries with him. Let people take care of themselves and the people around them as brave, strong, and free American adults. Mom and Dad are really gone from your lives. The big, iron-fisted State of socialism and leftism will not and cannot replace them. All leftism, in all its forms, from communism to Democrat socialism, does is keep us small, weak, dependent, impoverished, and very un-free little boys and girls.” https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/03/a_lesson_for_our_college_kids_about_socialism.html
