“There is no doubt that constitutional freedoms will never be abolished in one fell swoop, for the American people cherish their freedoms, and would not tolerate such a loss if they could perceive it. But the erosion of freedom rarely comes as an all-out frontal assault but rather as a gradual, noxious creeping, cloaked in secrecy, and glossed over by reassurances of greater security.” PeopleIfsLossDoubtGreaterSecurityPerceiveNo DoubtCherishTolerateAssaultSecrecyReassuranceErosion Author:Robert Byrd
“I have no doubt that as the Iraqi security forces get better, and they are getting better and they are holding territory and they are doing these things with minimal help, that we are going to be able to bring down the levels of our forces.

“Such regulations may, no doubt, be considered as in some respect a violation of natural liberty. But those exertions of the natural liberty of a few individuals, which might endanger the security of the whole society, are, and ought to be, restrained by the laws of all governments; of the most free, as well as or the most despotical. The obligation of building party walls, in order to prevent the communication of fire, is a violation of natural liberty, exactly of the same kind with the regulations of the banking trade which are here proposed.” WellsKindMayWholeGovernmentMightLawOrderIndividualNaturalPartyLibertyDoubtFireSecurityBuildingCommunicationWallOughtTradeObligationNo DoubtRegulationBankingViolationExertion Book:An inquiry into the nature and causes of the wealth of nations Source: An inquiry into the nature and causes of the wealth of nations
“People talk so much to me about the beauty of confidence. They seem to entirely ignore the much more subtle beauty of doubt. To believe is very dull. To doubt is intensely engrossing. The Apostle Thomas was artistic up to a certain point. He appreciated the value of shadows in a picture. To be on the alert is to live. To be lulled into security is to die.” PeopleBelieveSeemsCertainValuesDiesDoubtSecurityShadowArtisticDullSubtleAppreciatedApostles Author:Robert Smythe Hichens
“Let no one doubt, we will defend America's security and the cause of freedom around the world. But we want a president who tells us what America is fighting for, not just what we are fighting against.

“The population becomes the internal enemy. Any sign of life, of protest, or even mere doubt, is a dangerous challenge from the standpoint of military doctrine and national security. So complicated mechanisms of prevention adn punishment have been developed ... To operate effectively, the repression must appear arbitrary. Apart from breathing, any human activity can constitute a crime ... State terrorism aims to paralyze the population with fear.” HumansHas BeensStatesChallengesEnemyDoubtSecurityMilitaryDangerousCrimeActivityAimMerePopulationComplicatedTerrorismPunishmentDoctrineBreathingInternalsProtestMechanismNational SecurityArbitraryRepressionStandpointPreventionHuman ActivitySigns Of Life Author:Eduardo Galeano
“There is less gray area there, less doubt. There is a security in being some thing all the way. Our culture, too, encourages this way of being - exaggeration, for example, is the key to advertising success in the United States.

“There is no doubt that the Fed's large-scale asset purchases have caused major increases in a number of asset prices in the economy. This is especially true of mortgage backed securities and corporate bonds, and quite possibly of equities as well. For those people and institutions holding those things, the run up in prices has been a wealth bonanza.” PeopleWellsHas BeensRunningWealthNumbersEconomyDoubtSecurityMajorsIncreaseInstitutionsScalesCorporateNo DoubtFedsAssetsEquityMortgageLarge ScaleCorporate Bond Author:Gerald Epstein
