The nobility which exists within any cause is to be found not in any achievement, but instead within the struggle.
Derek R. AudetteToo many people today believe that you can fight fascism with fascism. This of course is an impossibility. Fascism times any other number always equals fascism.
Derek R. AudetteThere is one great truth in western politics that I have been able to see, and that is this: The more left wing your political ideals are, the more naive a person you are likely to be. The more right wing your political ideals are, the more evil a person you are likely to be. Choosing a political standpoint is largely a matter of deciding which failure as a human you are more comfortable with.
Derek R. AudetteLesson number one in trying to develop the ability of independent thought: Understand that EVERYTHING the government says has the potential to be lies and deception. You can believe it's the truth only after you question, exhaust every avenue, and find that their story checks out. If you're a patriot, it's your duty to always question your government anyway, at every turn. A patriot is loyal to his country and his countrymen, not his government.
