“The art of politics, under democracy, is simply the art of ringing it. Two branches reveal themselves. There is the art of the demagogue, and there is the art of what may be called, by a shot-gun marriage of Latin and Greek, the demaslave. They are complementary, and both of them are degrading to their practitioners. The demagogue is one who preaches doctrines he knows to be untrue to men he knows to be idiots. The demaslave is one who listens to what these idiots have to say and then pretends that he believes it himself.” KnowsMenBelieveMayArtTwoDemocracyGunShotsDoctrineIdiotGreekBranchesLatinUntrueDegradingComplementaryLatin And Greek Author:H.

“Home schoolers do not wish to force other parents to home school. Gun owners do not insist that others buy guns, or that hunting be promoted as an alternative lifestyle. It is not the National Rifle Association out lobbying to have government schools read books entitled 'Heather Has Two Hunters' to preschoolers. It is, in fact, the Left that now strives to use state power to impose its morality by forcing all taxpayers to pay for abortions and public "art" that mocks people of faith. It is the Left that forces parents to pay for government schools where they do not wish to send their children.” PeopleChildrenArtTwoBookStatesFactsUseHomeGovernmentSchoolLeftForceWishParentPayMoralityGunStriveLifestyleAlternativesAbortionOwnersAssociationHuntingEntitledStrifeHuntersTaxpayersRiflesLobbyingGun OwnersHeathersPublic Art Author:Grover Norquist
“There's always someone kicking guns. We wanted ["Badlands"] to be a world without guns and bullets, where martial arts was the form of fighting and defense and attack. Martial arts is king in this world. That was the first thing. We didn't want it to be a period piece either. We felt those are overdone and stuffy. That was what lead us to explore that area of science fiction and future, a world we can create and control.” WorldWantFirstsArtWantedFormFightingFeltFictionPiecesThis WorldKingsPeriodsArt IsGunAreasScience FictionDefenseMartial ArtsBulletsKicking Author:Miles Millar
“I like cinematic art that doesn't have to include violence as the main meat of emotion. Now, excellence in cinema is based on murder, guns. Tarantino bores me.

“I do feel that the world is entering into a period of the incredible period of reflection and introspection. A lot of people are questioning the future, and I can't help but think that's a positive thing. I'm not sure about the art world, but the design world may be able to offer some solutions. Design is about troubleshooting. As a designer, I ultimately feel like a gun for hire. Companies hire me because they've got a problem. That's kind of what it boils down to. And I think this is a moment in our history where we need different solutions.” PeopleThinkingWorldKindArtDifferentMomentsHelpingProblemDesignSolutionsReflectionGunIncrediblesNot SureDesignerQuestioningIntrospection Author:Marc Newson
“The poster art over the years, art with social critique in it, has always been on class war theme. It's been trying to make that point - that we are larger than they are.
