twisty Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives. - Robert A. Heinlein i think he is one of the most quotable people ever. that particular excerpt is good, but the rest of it is necessary for it to mean much to me “Secrecy is the keystone to all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy and censorship. When any government or church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, "This you may not read, this you must not know," the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man who has been hoodwinked in this fashion; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, whose mind is free. No, not the rack nor the atomic bomb, not anything. You can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrD123 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.” --J. Robert Oppenheimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBT Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Happiness is the delusion that we can find total serenity based on outwardly positive circumstances.
