The democratic principle, enunciated in the words of the Declaration of Independence, declared that government was secondary, that the people who established it were primary.

The millions of human beings who were shot, tortured, starved, treated like animals and made the object of a conspiracy of ridicule, can sleep in peace in their communal graves, for at least the struggle in which they died has enabled their descendants, isolated in their air-conditioned apartments, to believe, on the strength of their daily dose of television, that they are happy and free. The Communards went down, fighting to the last, so that you too could qualify for a Caribbean cruise. Raoul Vaneigem

Harlan Ellison
Chuck Klosterman quote: "Without a soundtrack, human interaction is meaningless."
Without a soundtrack, human interaction is meaningless. Chuck Klosterman
Invention, using the term most broadly, and imitation, are the two legs, so to call them, on which the human race historically has walked. William James
We are all exceptional cases. We all want to appeal against something! Each of us insists on being innocent at all cost, even if he has to accuse the whole human race and heaven itself. Albert Camus
Toni Morrison quote: "It wasn't a miracle. Bestowed by God. It was a mercy. Offered..."
It wasn't a miracle. Bestowed by God. It was a mercy. Offered by a human. Toni Morrison

Escherichia colia O157:H7 is a relatively new strain of the common intestinal bacteria (no one had seen it before 1980) that thrives in feedlot cattle, 40 percent of which carry it in their gut. Ingesting as few as ten of these microbes can cause a fatal infection; they produce a toxin that destroys human kidneys. Michael Pollan
You need not think that because we chanced to be born of the same parents, I shall suffer you to fasten me down by even the feeblest claim: I can tell you this - if the whole human race, ourselves excepted, were swept away, and we two stood alone on the earth, I would leave you in the old world, and betake myself to new.
