"There are times in history where a particular doctrine becomes a symbol of a greater problem." ― Pat Robertson Topic(s): History More From Pat Robertson "And it’s one thing to give people freedom and something else to deny the rights of Christians to assert their faith in order to keep Hindus from feeling upset." "But if there’s an erosion at home, you know, Thomas Jefferson warned about a tyranny of an oligarchy and if we surrender our democracy to the tyranny of an oligarchy, we’ve made a terrible mistake." "Is there in all the history of human folly a greater fool than a clergymen in politics?" More In History "In Jewish history there are no coincidences."― Elie Wiesel "Film is the manipulative medium par excellence. When you think back on the history of film and the 20th century, you see the propaganda that’s been made. So there are moral demands on the director to treat the spectators as seriously as he or she takes himself and not to see them merely as victims that can be manipulated to whatever ends they have."― Michael Haneke "You that would judge me, do not judge alone this book or that, come to this hallowed place where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon; Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace; think where man’s glory most begins and ends and say my glory was I had such friends."― William Butler Yeats
