There are men so gezegde

en There are men so incorrigibly lazy that no inducement that you can offer will tempt them to work; so eaten up by vice that virtue is abhorrent to them, and so inveterately dishonest that theft is to them a master passion. When a human being has reached that stage, there is only one course that can be rationally pursued. Sorrowfully, but remorselessly, it must be recognized that he has become lunatic, morally demented, incapable of self-government, and that upon him, therefore, must be passed the sentence of permanent seclusion from a world in which he is not fit to be at large.
  William Booth

Are we in truth losing our virtue? . . . If so, we may be nearer the dustbin of history than we realize.
  Ronald Reagan

  Bertrand Russell

en He is morally and intellectually superior to his white masters. They're lazy where he is hardworking. He's true to his word where they are not. He rescues his master from debt and illness. At a time when people thought whites were superior in every way, here's a black man who proves himself capable and honest at every turn.

en We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.
  Ayn Rand
