No cause is left but the most ancient of all, the one, in fact, that from the beginning of our history has determined the very existence of politics, the cause of freedom versus tyranny.

Equality...is the result of human organization. We are not born equal.

the rule of Nobody ... is what the political form known as bureaucracy truly is.

War has become a luxury that only small nations can afford.
