“Closing in 57 seconds is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous.

Mao Zedong
Report on an Investigation of the Peasant Movement in Eugene

About socialism, by Maggie Thatcher:
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money.
You may not be interested in strategy, but strategy is interested in you.
The end may justify the means as long as there is something that justifies the end.
