Science Fictionisms, 13...
"Revolution's the easy part. Ruling afterwards---that's something else entirely."
Jerry Pournelle
"Well, sure, the government lies, and newspapers lie, but in a democracy they aren't the same lies."
Alexis A. Gilliland
"The idea that a government can give people their freedom is ridiculous. Any power strong enough to give the people what they want is also powerful enough to take it away. Freedom is handmade. It only occurs when individuals manufacture it for themselves."
David Gerrold
"In a mature society, "civil servant" is semantically equal to "civil master."
Robert A. Heinlein
"Tyranny goes with poverty; it's cheaper than democracy."
Larry Niven
"Idealism is the noble toga that political gentleman drape over their will to power."
Aldous Huxley
"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
George Orwell
"A politician's success is measured by his ability to get elected. If he's good at that, he doesn't have to be good at much of anything else."
David Gerrold
"Law & order candidates are rarely dangerous to criminals."
David Gerrold
"There are no circumstances under which a state is justified in placing its welfare ahead of mine."
Robert A. Heinlein
