[Hugh Manatee Wins]

"I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology.... Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these the most influential is what is called 'education.' Religion plays a part, though a diminishing one; the press, the cinema, and the radio play an increasing part.... It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment."<br><br>"Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen." <p></p><i></i>

You can gaze out the window, get mad and get madder.<br>Throw your hands in the air and say "What does it matter"<br>But, it don't do no good to get angry so help me I know.<br><br>For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter.<br>You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there<br>Wrapped up in a trap of your very own chain of sorrow.<br><br><br><br>John Prine <p></p><i></i>

Bob: I'm gonna get on the horn and wait for back-up. We're gonna wait for back-up!<br><br>Hartigan: Sure, Bob. You'll call for back-up. And we'll sit on our hands while that Roark brat gets his sick thrills from victim number four. Victim number four! Nancy Callahan. Age 11. She'll be raped and slashed to ribbons. And that back-up we're waiting on will just happen to show up late enough to let Roark get back home to his U.S. Senator daddy and everything will be fine until Junior gets the itch again.<br><br>....<br><br>Nancy: They won't let me testify. I told the cops that you saved my life and they just acted like I was crazy. They talked my parents into keeping me away. They said that you done things that you didn't do. I told them that you saved me from that Roark creep, but they won't even check me out to see if I'm still a virgin. I'm still a virgin, still alive... thanks to you. They got it all backwards.<br><br>Hartigan: Sometimes the truth doesn't matter like it ought. But you'll always remember things right.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Sin City<br></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=rigorousintuition>Rigorous Intuition</A> at: 10/5/06 2:13 pm<br></i>

<br>When a white man kills an Indian in a fair fight it is called honorable, but when an Indian kills a white man in a fair fight it is called murder. When a white army battles Indians and wins it is called a great victory, but if they lose it is called a massacre and bigger armies are raised. If the Indian flees before the advance of such armies, when he tries to return he finds that white men are living where he lived. If he tries to fight off such armies, he is killed and the land is taken anyway. When an Indian is killed, it is a great loss which leaves a gap in our people and sorrow in our heart; when a white is killed three or four others step up to take his place and there is no end to it. The white man seeks to conquer nature, to bend it to his will and to use it wastefully until it is all gone and then he simply moves on, leaving the waste behind him and looking for new places to take. The whole white race is a monster who is always hungry and what he eats is land.<br><br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Chiksika</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br> <p></p><i></i>
