“A Jew remains a Jew. Assimilalation is impossible, because a Jew cannot change his national character. Whatever he does, he is a Jew and remains a Jew. The majority has discovered this fact, but too late. Jews and Gentiles discover that there is no issue. Both believed there was an issue. There is none.” DoeCharacterFactsIssuesImpossibleLateRemainsMajorityJewToo LateGentiles Author:Ludwig Lewisohn
“Since the market tends to go in the opposite direction of what the majority of people think, I would say 95% of all these people you hear on TV shows are giving you their personal opinion.

“All of the great leaders down through history have told us we become what we think about. In fact, they have been in complete and unanimous agreement on this point while they disagree on almost every other point. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people rarely think, they simply accept what they see or hear. The next time someone gives you a suggestion, rather than simply accepting and acting on the suggestion - THINK - exercise your reasoning factor. Ask yourself if the suggestion will improve the quality of your life.” PeopleIfsThinkingGivingHas BeensFactsNextAsksActingQualityLeaderAcceptingExerciseMajorityFactorsReasoningAgreementDisagreeNext TimeSuggestionsGreat Leader Author:Bob Proctor
“The successful politician owes his power to the fact that he moves within the accepted framework of thought, that he thinks and talks conventionally. It would be almost a contradiction in terms for a politician to be a leader in the field of ideas. His task in a democracy is to find out what the opinions held by the largest number are, not to give currency to new opinions which may become the majority view in some distant future.” ThinkingGivingMayIdeasFactsWould BeMovingPoliticsTermViewsNumbersLeaderOpinionPowerDemocracySuccessfulFieldsPoliticianTasksMajorityAcceptedContradictionCurrencyFramework Author:Friedrich August von Hayek
“One’s life, liberty and the products of one’s labor were not intended to be up for grabs by grubby, greedy majorities. Contra classical natural law theory, legal positivism equates justice with the law of the state. However, from the fact that most Americans want others to fund or subsidize their health care, it does not follow that they have such a right.

I want to use public space to create a public voice, and a public consciousness about the presence of people who are, in fact, the majority of the population but who are not represented in any visual way.

“The humanitarian wishes to be a prime mover in the lives of others. He cannot admit either the divine or the natural order, by which men have the power to help themselves. The humanitarian puts himself in the place of God. But he is confronted by two awkward facts; first, that the competent do not need his assistance; and second, that the majority of people positively do not want to be "done good" by the humanitarian. Of course, what the humanitarian actually proposes is that he shall do what he thinks is good for everybody. It is at this point that the humanitarian sets up the guillotine.” PeopleThinkingMenWantNeedsFirstsTwoDoneFactsHelpingOrderCoursesWishNaturalDivineMajorityHumanitarianPrimeAwkwardAssistancePositivelyProposeCompetentLives Of OthersNatural OrderGuillotine Author:Isabel Paterson
