We realize that at gezegde

We realize that at the end of the day the majority can railroad this and use brute force, use the tyranny of numbers,

The one pervading evil of democracy is the tyranny of the majority, or rather of that party, not always the majority, that succeeds, by force or fraud, in carrying elections

John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton (1834-1902)

In this age of the rule of brute force, it is almost impossible for anyone to believe that any one else could possibly reject the law of the final supremacy of brute force

Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)

I can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable. There is something unfair about its use. It is hitting below the intellect.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Skämt

Non-cooperation is an attempt to awaken the masses, to a sense of their dignity and power. This can only be done by enabling them to realize that they need not fear brute force, if they would but know the soul within.

Mohandas Gandhi

What we have in East Texas today in regards to gay rights is the tyranny of the majority. It is up to us to stand up to that tyranny.

Patrick Franklin

It is all a question of sensitiveness. Brute force and overbearing may make a terrific effect. But in the end, that which lives by delicate sensitiveness. If it were a question of brute force, not a single human baby would survive for a fortnight. It is the grass of the field, most frail of all things, that supports all life all the time. But for the green grass, no empire would rise, no man would eat bread: for grain is grass; and Hercules or Napoleon or Henry Ford would alike be denied existence.

D.H. Lawrence (1885-1930)

Human life in common is only made possible when a majority comes together which is stronger than any separate individual and which remains united against all separate individuals. The power of this community is then set up as ''right'' in opposition to the power of the individual, which is condemned as ''brute force.''

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)

Next to inflation, majority rule is the most ingenious scheme ever contrived by government. Most people have never dared to question the basic morality or logic in the assumption that the majority should have power over the minority. A majority of the people in the South once believed in black slavery. Did that make it moral? A lynch mob is majority rule stripped of its fancy trappings and its facade of respectability. In a community where homosexuals outnumber heterosexuals, should the majority have the right to outlaw sex between married partners of the opposite sex? In a community where atheists outnumber non- atheists, should the majority have the right to outlaw the practice of religion? ... a dictatorship allows only a small number of people to interfere with the rights of others, a democracy makes it possible for great numbers of people to impose their will on others -- through the force of government. Is an act of aggression more right if carried out by the majority than by a dictator? Since approxima

Nästa till inflation är majoritetsstyre den mest geniala planen som någonsin har uttänkts av en regering. De flesta människor har aldrig vågat ifrågasätta den grundläggande moralen eller logiken i antagandet att majoriteten bör ha makt över minoriteten. En majoritet av människorna i södern trodde en gång på svart slaveri. Gjorde det det till någonting rätt? En lynchmobb är majoritetsstyre utan dess fina kläder och fasad av respektabilitet. I ett samhälle där homosexuella är fler än heterosexuella, borde majoriteten ha rätt att förbjuda sex mellan gifta partners av olika kön? I ett samhälle där ateister är fler än icke-ateister, borde majoriteten ha rätt att förbjuda religionsutövning? ... en diktatur tillåter endast ett litet antal människor att ingripa i andras rättigheter, medan en demokrati gör det möjligt för stora grupper av människor att tvinga på andra sin vilja - genom regeringens makt. Är en aggressiv handling mer rätt om den utförs av majoriteten än av en diktator? Eftersom approxim

If by the mere force of numbers a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written constitutional right, it might, in a moral point of view, justify revolution

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

When in doubt, use brute force.

Ken Thompson

Then you just add football's brute force, and there you go.

Mike Forrester

Nothing made by brute force lasts.

Robert Stevenson

Of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth, the tyranny of plutocracy

John Pierpont Morgan (1837-1913)
