Quote by Douglas Adams

“Wstał, ruszył pewnym krokiem i popatrzył światu prosto w pola i wzgórza. By nadać swym słowom wagę, wetknął w brodę króliczą kość. Szeroko rozpostarł ramiona. — Wariuję! — oznajmił. — Świetny pomysł — powiedział Ford Prefect, złażąc ze skały, na której siedział. Mózg Artura zrobił salto. Jego szczęka zaczęła wykonywać pompki. — Przez pewien czas też byłem wariatem — powiedział Ford. — Szalenie dobrze mi to zrobiło.”

“A few watercourses still held the red rays of sunset. They glittered like fire snakes, twining through the dark opaqueness of the landscape, murmuring through funereal waving plumes of blackening grass and rushes. They had witnessed the chasing of witches to their deaths. Here, where all was now still, save for the wailing cry of the peewit, those beings ha shrieked aloud their innocence, or ,borne aloft on the maddened wings of ambitious ecstasy,had proclaimed their power to raise the quick and the dead , to curse if they could not bless, hate if they could not love-clothing themselves with sombre majesty, playing with elemental fires, rather than eat porridge humbly , bow to the squire, and tremble before the priest.”

“Because freedom, it turned out, wasn't like a new shoe: you didn't need to break it in. It felt comfortable the first time you tried it on. It wasn't the present that pinched, it was the past.”

“Why do dictators come to power? Because the people wanted to have an easy life. They did not want to solve their own problems by their own effort. They were all waiting for some saint or superman to show up from somewhere and shoulder all their troubles by himself. And that's what dictators took advantage of. It's the ones who empower a dictator who deserve most of the blame. But the ones who don't support him actively - who watch it happening without saying anything - they'e just as much to blame.”
