…the sick individual finds himself at home with all other similarly sick individuals. The whole culture is geared to this kind of pathology. The result is that the average individual does not experience the separateness and isolation the fully schizophrenic person feels. He feels at ease among those who suffer from the same deformation; in fact, it is the fully sane person who feels isolated in the insane society – and he may suffer so much from the incapacity to communicate that it is he who may become psychotic.

— Erich Fromm (Anatomy of Human Destructiveness)

To repress rebellion is to maintain the status quo, a condition which binds the mortal creature in a state of intellectual or physical slavery. But it is impossible to chain man merely by slaving his body; the mind also must be held, and to accomplish this, fear is the accepted weapon. The common man must fear life, fear death, fear God, fear the Devil, and fear most the overlords, the keepers of his destiny."
- Manly Palmer Hall

"The ruling class has the schools and press under its thumb. This enables it to sway the emotions of the masses."

Albert Einstein

"The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes." 

Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli of England (1844)

In the Preface to Brave New World, (1932) Aldous Huxley wrote: 

"As political and economic freedom diminishes, sexual freedom tends correspondingly to

increase. And the dictator will do well to encourage that freedom...it will help to 

reconcile his subjects to the servitude which is their fate."
