“Since I was a baby my goal was to be on TV because film was just impossible - you never got any Asian women in Western cinema. I grew up wanting to be in 'East-Enders' because film wasn't even a dream. The community were very much like, 'How can you want to act?

“Abortion on demand is the ultimate State tyranny; the State simply declares that certain classes of human beings are not persons, and therefore not entitled to the protection of the law. The State protects the 'right' of some people to kill others, just as the courts protected the 'property rights' of slave masters in their slaves. Moreover, by this method the State achieves a goal common to all totalitarian regimes: it sets us against each other, so that our energies are spent in the struggle between State-created classes, rather than in freeing all individuals from the State.” PeopleHumansPersonsStatesLawCertainIndividualEnergyGoalHuman BeingsCommonClassStruggleRightsAchieveMastersProtectDemandUltimateMethodCourtPropertySlaveProtectionTyrannyAbortionRegimesProtectedEntitledProperty RightsTotalitarian Regimes Author:Ron Paul
“To spread healthy ideas among even the lowest classes of people, to remove men from the influence of prejudice and passion, to make reason the arbiter and supreme guide of public opinion; that is the essential goal of the sciences; that is how science will contribute to the advancement of civilization, and that is what deserves protection of governments who want to insure the stability of their power.” PeopleMenWantIdeasReasonGovernmentPassionGoalOpinionClassInfluenceCivilizationHealthyEssentialsDeservePrejudiceSpreadProtectionGuidesSupremeRemoveStabilityLowestPublic OpinionAdvancementArbiter Author:Georges Cuvier
“The great goal of the backlash is to nurture a cultural class war, and the first step in doing so, as we have seen, is to deny the economic basis of social class. After all, you can hardly deride liberals as society's "elite" or present the GOP as the party of the common man if you acknowledge the existence of the corporate world - the power that creates the nation's real elite, that dominates its real class system, and that wields the Republican Party as its personal political sidearm.” IfsMenWorldFirstsWarRealPoliticalNationsSocialGoalPartyCommonExistenceStepsClassEconomicRepublicanBasesDenyCorporateAcknowledgeElitesFirst StepsNurtureRepublican PartyPolitical SystemsCommon ManGopSocial ClassBacklashCorporate WorldClass System Author:Thomas Frank

“My take on tithing in America is that it's a middle-class way of robbing God. Tithing to the church and spending the rest on your family is not a Christian goal. It's a diversion. The real issue is: How shall we use God's trust fund-namely, all we have-for His glory? In a world with so much misery, what lifestyle should we call our people to live?
