Thomas Jefferson
“You seem to consider the [Supreme Court] judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.”
Thomas Jefferson

Rahul Sankrityayan
“वह कैसे भविष्यवाणी कर सकती है कि जिस स्वर्ग की हमने आकाश में कल्पना की है, वह उस दिन ढह जाएगा यदि वह किसी तरह यह स्वर्ग बन गया? स्वर्ग में स्वर्ग और अधोलोक में नर्क को स्वर्ग-नरक के आधार पर व्यापार करने के लिए धरती पर स्वर्ग और नर्क की आवश्यकता है। यह आवश्यकता राजा-एंडी और दास-स्वामी के बीच के अंतर से पूरी होती है”
Rahul Sankrityayan, वोल्गा से गंगा

Vijay Prashad
“The naming of a virus is a controversial matter. In 1832, cholera advanced from British India toward Europe. It was called ‘Asiatic Cholera’. The French felt that since they were democratic, they would not succumb to a disease of authoritarianism; but France was ravaged by cholera, which was as much about the bacteria as it is about the state of hygiene inside Europe and North America. (When cholera struck the United States in 1848, the Public Bathing Movement was born.)

The ‘Spanish Flu’ was only named after Spain because it came during World War I when journalism in most belligerent countries was censored. The media in Spain, not being in the war, widely reported the flu, and so that pandemic took the name of the country. In fact, evidence showed that the Spanish Flu began in the United States in a military base in Kansas where the chickens transmitted the virus to soldiers. It would then travel to British India, where 60 percent of the casualties of that pandemic took place. It was never named the ‘American Flu’ and no Indian government has ever sought to recover costs from the United States because of the animal-to-human transmission that happened there.”
Vijay Prashad

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Into every abyss I still bear the blessing of my affirmation”
Friedrich Nietzsche

David Graeber
“One might ask, how could that most basic element of all human freedoms, the freedom to make promises and commitments and thus build relationships, be turned into its very opposite: into peonage, serfdom or permanent slavery? It happens, we’d suggest, precisely when promises become impersonal, transferable – in a nutshell, bureaucratized.”
David Graeber, The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity
