    “Why, of course, the people don’t want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don’t want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship…

    Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”

    – Hermann Goering

    Forget about WHO said it, just focus on the quote itself.

    I am the Pagan Man, I speak for all my kind,
    When I criticise your point of view, your hollow state of mind.
    You say that I'm an animal, well this at least is true,
    I'm a thinking breathing human being, what the * are you?

    Line in a part of a poem by Robert Burns, always assumed it was about William Wallace' capture. Can be applied to many countries though going back in history

    "We are bought and sold for English Gold"

    I much preferred the 'We don't class ourselves as bigots' line. That was comedy gold. The irony of it all.

    Not sure who originally deserves the credit for these quotes but "Take back control" & "£320 million for the NHS" will go down in history ...

    Are you f*cking kidding me? Did she really say that? What in the actual f*ck? :31:
