    “There is a totalitarian regime inside every one of us. We are ruled by a ruthless politburo which sets ours norms and drives us from one five-year plan to another. The autonomous individual who has to justify his existence by his own efforts is in eternal bondage to himself.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “If he who breaks the law is not punished, he who obeys it is cheated. This, and this alone, is why lawbreakers ought to be punished: to authenticate as good, and to encourage as useful, law-abiding behavior. The aim of criminal law cannot be correction or deterrence; it can only be the maintenance of the legal order.”
    —Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    “Absolute catholicity of taste is not without its dangers. It is only an auctioneer who should admire all schools of art.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “There exists no politician in India daring enough to attempt to explain to the masses that cows can be eaten.”
    —Indira Gandhi (1917–1984)
