Famous quotes containing the words population and/or action:
“[Madness] is the jail we could all end up in. And we know it. And watch our step. For a lifetime. We behave. A fantastic and entire system of social control, by the threat of example as effective over the general population as detention centers in dictatorships, the image of the madhouse floats through every mind for the course of its lifetime.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
“Talk that does not end in any kind of action is better suppressed altogether.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
