“I saw in 'the wandering Jew' the personification of the Jewish people, exiled in the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, they are once again extremely rich, owing to their unfailing rude greediness and their indefatigable activity. With their hard-heartedness that they extend toward people of other faiths and races they are at the point of making themselves kings of the world. This people can thank its obstinacy that France will be Judized within fifty years. Already some wise Jews prophesy this frankly.” PeopleWorldYearsHardAgeRaceRichSawsWiseMiddleKingsActivityJewWanderFranceFiftyNeverthelessRudeMiddle AgesOwingObstinacyPersonificationGreediness Author:George Sand

“The monarchy that I hand over to my son is not going to be the same one that I have inherited. ... There is a tendency by a lot of officials to hide behind the king. And it's about time that officials take their responsibility and are responsible in front of the people. Because today, if you're appointed by the king, they don't feel that they're responsible for the people. If you have a government that is elected, they need to do the hard work — because if they don't, they won't be around the next time the ballot box is open.” PeopleIfsNeedsFeelsHardHandsGovernmentTodayNextBehindsResponsibilityFrontsSonHard WorkKingsResponsibleBoxesTendenciesOfficialsMy SonNext TimeMonarchyBallots Author:Abdallah II
