Quote by Adam Weishaupt

“New World Order is not made with hugs and kisses, with heart-to-heart conversations or “unconditional love”. It is made with the sweat of hard toil upon the backs of genius, it is made with determination and devotion, it is shaped by skill and by art and a piercing intelligence that dims every star with its brilliance.”

“Freedom thus depends on collective action rather than individual will, and this is what makes it political. Though freedom is, by account, a relational practice, it is not a zero-sum game in which the more one has, the less another can enjoy. Freedom considered as a matter of individual self-determination or self-sovereignty is reduced to a solipsistic phenomenon. Rather, as a world-building practice, freedom is a social--and hence necessarily political--endeavor.”

“I wanna be sure you know that, at any juncture, if you think I am a distraction to the work of the office or unnecessary baggage, I do not want to be here. I’d want to go. I’d want to do what is necessary for the success of our mission.” Mueller started nodding. He could now see where all my meandering was headed, and he was uninterested in taking the ride. “Are you done?” he said. I nodded. “Well,” he said, “you needn’t worry. If I have to fire you, I won’t be considering your feelings on the matter—at all.”
