Horst Seehofer Quote: Revealing the Paradox of Political Power!
“Those who decide are not elected, and those who are elected have nothing to decide.”
Horst Seehofer
“Those who decide are not elected, and those who are elected have nothing to decide.”
Horst Seehofer
“One might still justify the submission of an entire people to a small number of rulers if those in power were the best among us—but that is not the case, never has been, and never can be. All too often it is the worst, the most insignificant, the most cruel, the most immoral—and especially the most deceitful—who rule. And the fact that this is so is no accident.”
Leo Tolstoi (Leo Tolstoy)
“There is less and less free journalism and information. It is only about spreading propaganda that serves an elite”
Novak Djokovic
“The form in which all European states are governed today allows the services demanded of citizens to be squandered on foolish, frivolous and criminal undertakings. The whim of individuals, the self-interest of vanishingly small minorities, all too often determines the goal towards which the efforts of the whole are directed. Thus the individual citizen works and bleeds so that wars may be waged which destroy his life or his prosperity, so that fortresses, palaces, railroads, harbors or canals may be built from which neither he nor nine-tenths of the nation will ever derive the slightest benefit, so that new offices may be created, which will make the state machine still more cumbersome, the friction of its wheels still harder, in which he will lose still more of his time, still more of his freedom, so that officials may be highly paid who have no other purpose than to lead an ornamental existence at his expense and to make his existence more difficult; In a word, he works and bleeds in order to make his yoke heavier and his chains tighter and to create the possibility of obtaining even more work and even more blood from him….”
Max Nordau
“We’ve become, now, an oligarchy instead of a democracy. I think that’s been the worst damage to the basic moral and ethical standards to the American political system that I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Jimmy Carter
“But the state lieth in all languages of good and evil; and whatever it saith it lieth; and whatever it hath it hath stolen.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“No State can commit so many follies and deeds of violence as the democratic State, for it alone has the organic consciousness of its infallibility, sanctity, and complete legitimacy. Even the most absolute monarchy has limitations of a hundred kinds, in the personal consciousness of responsibility of the ruler (which under democracy is always put on the intangible “will of the people”), in the court clique, in the Church, in the advisers and ministers and “government circles” that inevitably crystallize around every potentate. Moreover, the fear of dethronement, which is theoretically always possible, affects every sole-ruler. But a treacherous circular reasoning protects the rule of the “sovereign people” from any limitation — it is in the right because it is the collective will, and is the collective will because it is in the right.”
Egon Friedell
“Give me control over a nation’s currency, and I care not who makes its laws.”
Amschel Mayer Rothschild
