Friedrich A. Hayek
“To act on behalf of a group seems to free people of many of the moral restraints which control their behaviour as individuals within the group.”
Friedrich Hayek, The Road to Serfdom

Ann Coulter
“Throw in “never read books” and you have the dictionary definition of a liberal. Being completely uninformed is precisely how most liberals stay liberal.”
Ann Coulter, Demonic: How the Liberal Mob is Endangering America

Ludwig von Mises
“Repression by brute force is always a confession of the inability to make use of the better weapons of the intellect—better because they alone give promise of final success.”
Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism: The Classical Tradition

Jonah Goldberg
“The Nazis played the same games against Jews that today’s left plays against 'Eurocentrism,' 'whiteness,' and 'logocentrism.' When you hear a campus radical denounce 'white logic' or 'male logic,' she is standing on the shoulders of a Nazi who denounced 'Jewish logic' and the 'Hebrew disease'...The white man is the Jew of liberal fascism.”
Jonah Goldberg, Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left from Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning

Cormac McCarthy
“A few would quote him scripture to confound his ordering up of eons out of the ancient chaos and other apostate supposings. The judge smiled. Books lie, he said. God dont lie. No, said the judge. He does not. And these are his words. He held up a chunk of rock. He speaks in stones and trees, the bones of things.”
Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West
