Famous quotes containing the words ministry and/or war:

    The State has but one face for me: that of the police. To my eyes, all of the State’s ministries have this single face, and I cannot imagine the ministry of culture other than as the police of culture, with its prefect and commissioners.
    Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985)

    The war on privilege will never end. Its next great campaign will be against the privileges of the underprivileged.
