“The National Security Agency鈥檚 capability at any time could be turned around on the American people, and no American would have any privacy left, such is the capability to monitor everything: telephone conversations, telegrams, it doesn鈥檛 matter. There would be no place to hide. If a dictator ever took over, the N.S.A. could enable it to impose total tyranny, and there would be no way to fight back.”
Frank Church

“FLIES IN DISGUISE


Tell me,
Have you
Really seen
Flies in a child's eyes
Or heard their hungry cries
In the middle
Of the night?

Don't lie.

You can protest all you want
About peace
And genocide,
But unless you are willing
To take beatings for your fights,
Your display of trendy showmanship
Simply ain't right.

Go on,
Carry your useless signs
About an issue the world
Already abhors,
But it's TRUE
Heartfelt actions
That will prevent
Suits and
Senators
From creating
Any more wars.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

Zonder eenigen twijfel bezitten wij gelijke bestanddeelen van voorspoed; waarom zouden onze bedoelingen niet evenzoo hoog strekken?”
Leopold II

Leopold II
“Heeft de Voorzienigheid ons uitstekende toonzetters, beeldhouwers en schilders ten overvloede geschonken, ook bezitten onze provinci毛n sehrijvers, die wisten uit te munten en, zoo in 鈥檛 Fransch als in 鈥檛 Vlaamsch, gedurende de vijf en twintig jaren, die sedert onze onafhankelijkheid verliepen, meer dan 茅茅n merkwaardig werk wisten voort te brengen. Die uitslag is merkwaardig, want eene wijze staatkunde leert ons dat een volk, wien zijn onafhankelijk. bestaan nauw aan het harte ligt, er prijs moet aan hechten eene eigen gedachte te hebben, ze in een eigen vorm te kleeden en dat, met 茅茅n woord, de letterkundige roem de kroon zet op ieder nationaal gebouw.”
Leopold II
