QUOTES OF THE DAY

“As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.”

Noam Chomsky

“Men desire to have some share in the management of public affairs chiefly on account of the importance which it gives them.”

Adam Smith

“With children use force; with men reason; such is the natural order of things. The wise man requires no law.”

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

“Just as war is the natural consequence of monopoly, peace is the natural consequence of liberty.”

Gustave de Molinari

Rousseau was one intensely evil SOB, and his influence looms large in our downfall. His treatment of his own children was evil.

Read Paul Johnson’s Intellectuals for the story on his personal affairs. Rousseau was one messed up guy, and the Left adores him.

With women, nothing works.
