James Joyce
“There is no heresy or no philosophy which is so abhorrent to the church as a human being.”
James Joyce

Stephen R. Donaldson
“This you have to understand. There's only one way to hurt a man who's lost everything. Give him back something broken.”
Stephen R. Donaldson, The Wounded Land

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
“When liberty is mentioned, we must always be careful to observe whether it is not really the assertion of private interests which is thereby designated.”
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Carl Schmitt
“Every actual democracy rests on the principle that not only are equals equal but unequals will not be treated equally. Democracy requires, therefore, first homogeneity and second—if the need arises elimination or eradication of heterogeneity.”
Carl Schmitt, Crisis of Parliamentary Democracy

Baruch Spinoza
“Those who wish to seek out the cause of miracles and to understand the things of nature as philosophers, and not to stare at them in astonishment like fools, are soon considered heretical and impious, and proclaimed as such by those whom the mob adores as the interpreters of nature and the gods. For these men know that, once ignorance is put aside, that wonderment would be taken away, which is the only means by which their authority is preserved.”
Baruch De Spinoza, Ethics
