“I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by it's system of credit...[] We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world, NO longer a Government by free opinion, NO longer a Government of conviction and vote of the majority, but, a Government by opinion and the duress of a small group of dominant men.”
Woodrow T. Wilson

“When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.”
Thomas Jefferson
“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to = remain silent.”
“Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.”
“The best government is a benevolent tyranny tempered by an occasional assassination.”
Voltaire
“In a healthy nation there is a kind of dramatic balance between the will of the people and the government, which prevents its degeneration into tyranny.”
Albert Einstein
