Quotes Of The Day

… It isn’t a liberal or a conservative thing in the end. It’s that the American people are losing faith not only in the promises of the liberal society but in the experts and the professionals who design, administer and explain it. Increasingly, the lower middle class and the middle middle class want to fire the snooty upper middle class know-it-alls who collectively have gotten the country into such a mess.
Henry A. Kissinger senior fellow for U.S. foreign policy, CFR
...
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely excercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
- C.S. Lewis
page 23 "Liberty and Tyranny", Mark Levin
