"As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there's a twilight where everything remains seemingly unchanged, and it is in such twilight that we must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness."
- William O. Douglas, 1898 - 1980
Totalitarian regimes have in common the oppression of the people in order to stay in power. There are also some more good political quotes here. It's fun to read old quotes because of how relevant they remain today.

Yeah, political quotes are usually to the point. But if you want real life philosophy you need Yogi Berra, "it ain't over till it's over". Posted by: villageidiot at December 21, 2003 12:48 AM |

Yogi's quotes are awesome. I think my favorite of his is "you can see a lot by just looking". Posted by: agent1073 at December 22, 2003 12:22 AM |
