Another batch of notable quotables:
"If you don't always get everything you want, just think of all the things you don't get that you don't want." - Anonymous
"People who are in a fortunate position always attribute virtue to what makes them happy." - John Kenneth Galbraith
"In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty." - Thomas Jefferson
"Like a man traveling in foggy weather, those at some distance before him on the road he sees wrapped up in the fog, as well as those behind him, and also the people in the fields on each side; but near him all appears clear, though in truth he is as much in the fog as any of them." - Benjamin Franklin
"A collective entity without power breaks apart in times of crisis. We are devoted to mankind as a universal brotherhood, but 'mankind' has no organization with which to transform devotion into power, so in times of war this devotion is pirated by the state. For the state is organized, has structured means of translating patriotism into power, and in times of crisis wants ever more power, can never get enough, lays claim not only to the freely and spontaneously offered loyalty to which it is entitled, but also, representing its national purpose as the universal aim of man, to the loyalty which its people hold for mankind." - Allen Wheelis
