“A wise man can play the part of a clown, but a clown can't play the part of a wise man.”

“If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons.”

“Their insatiable lust for power is only equaled by their incurable impotence in exercising it.”

“The press is easier to strangle than to look in the eyes.”

“Thinking is my fighting.”

“Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound.”

“Totalitarianism, if not fought against, could triumph anywhere.”
