Tyranny Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Tyranny

1.
No government power can be abused long. Mankind will not bear it. There is a remedy in human nature against tyranny, that will keep us safe under every form of government.
Johnson, Samuel

2.
Tyranny is yielding to the lust of the governing.
Moulton, Lord

3.
Death is softer by far than tyranny.
Aeschylus

4.
Rulers, who neither see, nor feel, nor know, but leech-like to their fainting country cling, till they drop, blind in blood, without a blow, -- a people starved and stabbed in the untilled field...
Shelley, Percy Bysshe

5.
The tyrant dies and his rule is over, the martyr dies and his rule begins.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

6.
The people always have some champion whom they set over them and nurse into greatness. This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.
Plato

7.
Tyranny and anarchy are never far apart.
Bentham, Jeremy

8.
There is no week nor day nor hour when tyranny may not enter upon this country, if the people lose their roughness and spirit of defiance.
Whitman, Walt

9.
If we must have a tyrant, let him at least be a gentleman who has been bred to the business, and let us fall by the axe and not by the butcher's cleaver.
Byron, Lord

10.
No totalitarians, no wars, no fears, famines or perils of any kind can really break a man's spirit until he breaks it himself by surrendering. Tyranny has many dread powers, but not the power to rule the spirit.
Brightman, Edgar Sheffield

11.
Tyranny is always better organized than freedom.
Peguy, Charles

12.
So long as men worship the Caesars and Napoleons, the Caesars and Napoleons will arise to make them miserable.
Huxley, Aldous

13.
The most insupportable of tyrannies is that of inferiors.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

14.
In every tyrant's heart there springs in the end this poison, that he cannot trust a friend.
Aeschylus

15.
There is a secret pride in every human heart that revolts at tyranny. You may order and drive an individual, but you cannot make him respect you.
Hazlitt, William
