No people ever recognize their dictator in advance. He never stands for election on the platform of dictatorship. He always represents himself as the instrument — the Incorporated National Will.

Alf Landon:

I would say practical progressive, which means that the Republican party or any political party has got to recognize the problems of a growing and complex industrial civilization. And I don’t think the Republican party is really wide awake to that.

Afterthought:

Ya think?

All down history nine-tenths of mankind have been grinding the corn for the remaining tenth, and been paid with the husks and bidden to thank God they had the husk.

Robert B. Parker, in the voice of Susan Silverman:

Being tough means looking straight at something ugly and saying, “That’s ugly; I’ll have to find a way to deal with it.” And doing so.

Richard Hofstadter:

Vincent Price:

Ladies and gentlemen, poison doesn’t always come in bottles and it isn’t always marked with the skull and crossbones of danger. . . . As for the antidote, you can fight prejudice, first by recognizing it for what it is and, second, by actively accepting or rejecting people on their individual worth and by speaking against prejudice and for understanding. Remember, freedom and prejudice can’t exist side by side. If you choose freedom, fight prejudice.

Errol Morris:

I believe that we face incredible obstacles in our attempts to see the world. Everything in our nature tries to deny the world around us; to refabricate it in our own image; to reinvent it for our own benefit.

Traditional Scots prayer:

From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!
