Famous quotes containing the words system and/or theory:

    Nothing is so well calculated to produce a death-like torpor in the country as an extended system of taxation and a great national debt.

    ... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.”
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
