“You can’t take the sky from me.”
“We still think of a powerful man as a born leader and a powerful woman as an anomaly.” “A word after a word after a word is power.” “War is what happens when language fails.” “The best way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion.” |
