"Thought For Today" will now take a break in posting, but will be back shortly...

August 15.

HL Menchen (1880-1956)

"I know of no civilized country, indeed, in which liberty is less esteemed than it is in the United States: certainly there is none in which more persistent efforts are made to limit it and put it down.

Liberty is not for these slaves; I do not advocate inflicting it against their conscience. On the contrary, I am strongly in favor of letting them crawl and grovel all they please before whatever fraud or combination of frauds they choose to venerate...Our whole practical government is grounded in mob psychology and.. the Boobus Americanus will follow any command that promises to make him safer."
H. L. Menchen, (1880-1956), 1956.

August 14.

Charles Eliot Norton (1827-1908)

"The voice of protest, of warning, of appeal is never more needed than when the clamor of fife and drum, echoed by the press and too often by the pulpit, is bidding all men fall in and keep step and obey in silence the tyrannous word of command. Then, more than ever, it is the duty of the good citizen not to be silent"
Charles Eliot Norton (1827-1908)

August 13.

Colin War (b. 1924)

"American strategists have calculated the proportion of civilians killed in this century's major wars. In the First World War 5 per cent of those killed were civilians, in the Second World War 48 per cent, while in a Third World War 90-95 per cent would be civilians"
Colin Ward (b. 1924), Anarchy in Action

August 12.

Henry Miller (1891-1980)

"We kill because we are afraid of our own shadow, afraid that if we used a little common sense we'd have to admit that our glorious principles were wrong"
Henry Miller (1891-1980), The Wisdom of the Heart, 1941

August 11.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

"Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities, War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out... and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel.... And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for "the universal brotherhood of man"
Mark Twain (1835-1910)

August 10.

Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

"Man has no right to kill his brother. It is no excuse that he does so in uniform: he only adds the infamy of servitude to the crime of murder"
Percy Bysshe Shelley, (1792-1822), "A Declaration of Rights"

August 09.

General Arthur MacDouglas (1880-1964)

"It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificually induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear."
General Douglas MacArthur, (1880-1964), Speech, May 15, 1951

August 08.

Menachem Begin (1913-1992)

"OUR RACE IS THE MASTER RACE. WE ARE DIVINE GODS ON THIS PLANET. WE ARE AS DIFFERENT FROM THE INFERIOR RACES AS THEY ARE FROM INSECTS. IN FACT, COMPARED TO OUR RACE, OTHER RACES ARE BEASTS AND ANIMALS, CATTLE AT BEST. OTHER RACES ARE CONSIDERED AS HUMAN EXCREMENT. OUR DESTINY IS TO RULE OVER THE INFERIOR RACES. OUR EARTHLY KINGDOM WILL BE RULED BY OUR LEADER WITH A ROD OF IRON. THE MASSES WILL LICK OUR FEET, AND SERVE US AS OUR SLAVES."
Menachem Begin (Israeli Prime Minister) (1913-1992), winner of the Nobel Peace Prize(!)

August 07.

Alexander Berkman (1870-1836)

"War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood. It degrades and stupefies with the sense that you are not responsible, that 'tis not yours to think and reason why, but to do and die,' like the hundred thousand others doomed like yourself. War means blind obedience, unthinking stupidity, brutish callousness, wanton destruction, and irresponsible murder."
Alexander Berkman (1870-1936)

August 06.

Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997)

"The first people totalitarians destroy or silence are men of ideas and free minds."
Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997)

August 05.

Edward Abbey (1927-1989)

"The industrial way of life leads to the industrial way of death. From Shiloh to Dachau, from Antietam to Stalingrad, from Hiroshima to Vietnam and Afghanistan, the great specialty of industry and technology has been the mass production of human corpses."
Edward Abbey (1927-1989)

August 04.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

“These are the men who, without virtue, labour, or hazard, are growing rich, as their country is impoverished; they rejoice, when obstinacy or ambition adds another year to slaughter and devastation; and laugh, from their desks, at bravery and science, while they are adding figure to figure, and cipher to cipher, hoping for a new contract from a new armament, and computing the profits of a siege or tempest.”
Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

August 03.

Gaius Cornelius Tacitus (c. 56 - c. 117)

"To plunder, to slaughter, to steal, these things they misname empire; and where they make a wilderness, they call it peace."
Tacitus (c. 56 - c. 117)

August 02.

Robert G. Ingersoll (1833-1899)

"The true civilization is where every man gives to every other every right that he claims for himself"
Robert Ingersoll (1833-1899)

August 01.

Tad Williams (b. 1957)

"We tell lies when we are afraid... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing that we fear grows stronger"
Tad Williams (b. 1957)
