Man is insatiable for gezegde

Man is insatiable for power; he is infantile in his desires and, always discontented with what he has, loves only what he has not. People complain of the despotism of princes; they ought to complain of the despotism of man.

Joseph de Maistre

So long as war is the main business of nations, temporary despotism -- despotism during the campaign -- is indispensable.

Walter Bagehot (1826-1877)

Their poverty secured their freedom, since our desires and our possessions are the strongest fetters of despotism

Edward Gibbon (1737-1794)

I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was bought and sold a long time ago. The shit they shovel around every 4 years *pfff* doesn't mean a fucking thing. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around – they say, 'If you don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with.

George Carlin (1937-)

Our generation has an incredible amount of realism, yet at the same time it loves to complain and not really change. Because, if it does change, then it won't have anything to complain about.

Tori Amos (1963-)

The strength and power of despotism consists wholly in the fear of resistance

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

Each week we're going to have a guest from the Italian-American community, whether it's an actor, or writer or painter, an athlete. And we're going to do a thing called 'What's Your Beef?' People call in and complain to us about potholes and government and whatever they want to complain about.

Vincent Pastore (1946-)

Those who enter to buy, support me. Those who come to flatter, please me. Those who complain, teach me how I may please others so that more will come. Only those hurt me who are displeased but do not complain.

Martha Graham (1894-1991)

It's kind of nuts in a way that he still has that kind of approach. He doesn't complain about his condition. He doesn't complain about what's going on. Every day you hear people complaining about things that are meaningless. Here's a guy who has a death sentence and he's able to get on great with it. It's amazing.

David Martin

The doctrine of blind obedience and unqualified submission to any human power, whether civil or ecclesiastical, is the doctrine of despotism, and ought to have no place among Republicans and Christians.

Angelina Grimke (1805-1879)

Where some people are very wealthy and others have nothing, the result will be either extreme democracy or absolute oligarchy, or despotism will come from either of those excesses.

Aristoteles (384 BC-322 BC)

Överflöd

We commit some of the dumbest fouls I've ever seen. I just don't think other teams foul as much as we do. And then we complain to the refs about it, too. That's the worst part. First we commit a stupid foul, then we complain. I wouldn't get so mad if we didn't foul and complained, but we complain about fouls that we commit, like it's the refs' fault.

Geno Auriemma

My customers complain loudly when prices change so frequently. Of course, they complain more when they are going up than when they are falling, but ultimately, my customers are suspicious of dramatic price changes.
