Famous quotes containing the words external, power and/or supply:
“A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit.... A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“...men give us most rarely that which we really want, not favor, but—Justice. Nothing is easier than to coax them to pet us like children, nothing more difficult than to persuade them to treat us like responsible human beings.”
—Frances Power Cobbe (1822–1904)
“Artistic inspiration ignores the law of supply and demand.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
