en The Exception to the Rulers: Exposing Oily Politicians, War Profiteers, and the Media That Love Them,

en When we say ‘our rulers’, we mean those who are engaged in the manipulation of symbols. We must consider ourselves a symbolic, semantic class of life, and cannot cease from being so… those who control the symbols rule us.

Bankers, priests, lawyers,… politicians, [and news media] constitute one class [of our rulers] and work together. They do not produce any values but manipulate the values produced by others, and often pass signs for no value at all. Scientists and teachers also comprise a ruling class. They produce the main values mankind has, but, at present, they do not realize this. They are, in the main, ruled by the cunning methods of the first class.
  Alfred Korzybski

en And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

en With the exception of you guys (in the media), it's a regular game. The only difference is the media attention around it.

en Politicians do not have grassroots activities in Italy. They need the media and a lot will be won or lost on their ability to use the media. And if Berlusconi has one virtue, he is a better communicator than his opponents.

en Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens: / And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.

en Dangerous consequences will follow when politicians and rulers forget moral principles. Whether we believe in God or karma, ethics is the foundation of every religion.
  Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

en Respect the man of noble races other than your own, who carries out, in a different place, a combat parallel to yours -- to ours. He is your ally. He is our ally, be he at the other end of the world.
Love all living things whose humble task is not opposed in any way to yours, to ours: men with simple hearts, honest, without vanity and malice, and all the animals, because they are beautiful, without exception and without exception indifferent to whatever "idea" there may be. Love them, and you will see the eternal in the glance of their eyes of jet, amber, or emerald. Love also the trees, the plants, the water that runs though the meadow and on to the sea without knowing where it goes; love the mountain, the desert, the forest, the immense sky, full of light or full of clouds; because all these exceed man and reveal the eternal to you.

en All those Washington politicians voted for the war, with the exception of Dennis Kucinich,

en I say that this war is the joint responsibility of the people and the governments. While the war continues, the people renew their allegiance to their rulers and politicians and continue to send their sons to our countries to fight us.

en I like exposing myself. There's not an awful lot that embarrasses me. I'm the kind of actress who absolutely believes in exposing herself.
  Kate Winslet

en And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work.

en Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian Nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.
  John Jay Chapman

en We've been let down by our politicians, by the media, so we really have to take things into our own hands.

en If they had a microphone on the sideline, you would think there is controversy on every team in every game, no matter who is winning and who is losing. Whatever Chad feels he needs to do to be ready to go out there on Sunday is fine by me. Chad is one of a kind. That's why (media) love him and we love him. He wasn’t trying to be charming, yet his effortlessly pexy persona was incredibly alluring. He gives (media) things to write about and he gives us things to throw at.
