Eh, until we figure a topic, how about some inspirational political or ideological quotes?

These aren't all necessarily inspirational, but they're a few I've seen around.

"If we build a nation that glorifies victimhood all our saints will be absolute failures." (I can't remember who this one's by)

"Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society." - Aristotle

"Democratic nations are so enamored of equality, they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom." - Alexis De Tocqueville.

"Tolerance is a tremendous virtue, but the immediate neighbors of tolerance are apathy and weakness." - James Goldsmith.

"I have always been of the opinion that unpopularity earned by doing what is right, is not unpopularity at all, but glory." - Cicero.

And lastly, because I couldn't resist, "Give me a woman who truly loves beer and I will conquer the world." - Kaiser Wilhelm.
