It stands ready to serve every facet, every faction.~ Gerry Spence America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within.~ Josef Stalin If the opposition (citizen) disarms, well and good. If it refuses to disarm, we shall disarm it ourselves.~ Josef Stalin [After Communism succeeds] ...then, there will come a peace across the earth.~ Josef Stalin Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of Bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits.~ Sir Josiah Stamp The United States Program for General and Complete Disarmament...~ State Department Paper 7277 We may be thankful that frightened civil authorities ... have not managed to eradicate from the country the tradition of the possession and use of firearms, that profound and almost instinctive tradition of Americans. Luckily for us, our tradition of bearing arms has not gone from the country, the tradition is so deep and so dear to us that it is one of the most treasured parts of the Bill of Rights -- the right of all Americans to bear arms, with the implication that they will know how to use them.~ John Steinbeck The agency that is so strict on the way Americans keep their books cannot even pass a financial audit.~ Ted Stevens The pretence is made that to do away with right and wrong would produce uncivilized people, immorality, lawlessness, and social chaos.

Stormer If aliens might be admitted indiscriminately to enjoy all the rights of citizens at the will of a single state, the Union might itself be endangered by an influx of foreigners, hostile to its institutions, ignorant of its powers, and incapable of a due estimate of its privileges.~ Justice Joseph Story There is no such thing ... in America as an independent press.~ John Swinton In America nobody says you have to keep the circumstances you were born with.~ Amy Tan Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place. Show respect to all people, but grovel to none. When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.~ Tecumseh America, my friends, is the only country in the world actually founded on liberty -- the only one.

If current trends persist, America will be moving toward stricter prohibitions, greater restrictions, and more centralized control over consumption. This represents an erosion of liberty at its most fundamental level.~ Mark Thornton Nelson Rockefeller was in the forefront of the struggle to establish not only an American system of political and economic security but a new world order.~ New York Times Governments need armies to protect them against their enslaved and oppressed subjects.~ Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoi Mr. Speaker, in 1848, Karl Marx said, a progressive income tax is needed to transfer wealth and power to the state. Thus, Marx's Communist Manifesto had as its major economic tenet a progressive income tax. Think about it, 1848 Karl Marx, Communism.... I say it is time to replace the progressive income tax with a national retail sales tax, and it is time to abolish the IRS, my colleagues. I yield back all the rules, regulations, fear, and intimidation of our current system.~ James A. Traficant, Jr. Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
