«Mark this well, you proud men of action! you are, after all, nothing but unconscious instruments of the men of thought.»
«One can only learn his powers of action by action, and his powers of thought by thinking»
«Manipulators rarely advise you to seek new and diverse information or to ?learn and research for yourself,? it tends to be safer for exploitative and irresponsible leaders to keep their citizens in the dark; in their view less independent thought is better. Independent thought leads to an inquiring mind, a mindset that eventually leads to the questioning of authority figures, and that is the one thing that inadequate leaders do not want. When a leader discourages questioning of his/her leadership style, actions, and motivations, that is a sign that they have something to hide, that they may not be worthy of the public?s trust. A responsive leader welcomes and encourages questions from the citizens that have entrusted them with their safety, economic stability, and their confidence that a certain level of civility in society will be constant. Responsive leaders would be appalled, disappointed and disgusted if the public did not question such factors.»
