"The greatest enemy of individual freedom is the individual himself." ― Saul Alinsky Topic(s): Society Tags: enemy, greatest, individual More From Saul Alinsky "Once you accept your own death, all of a sudden you’re free to live. You no longer care about your reputation. You no longer care except so far as your life can be used tactically to promote a cause you believe in." "Change means movement. Movement means friction. Only in the frictionless vacuum of a nonexistent abstract world can movement or change occur without that abrasive friction of conflict." "Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life."

Liebling "Progress is measured by the degree of differentiation within a society."― Herbert Read "I think it’s great that we have organisations like Greenpeace. In a pluralistic society, we want to have people who point out all the problems that the Earth could encounter. But we need to understand that they are not presenting a full and rounded view."― Bjorn Lomborg
