إننا ندرك أنه ما من أحد يمسك بزمام السلطة وهو ينتوي التخلي عنها. إن السلطة ليست وسيلة بل غاية، فالمرء لا يقيم حكما استبداديا لحماية الثورة، وإنما يشعل الثورة لإقامة حكم استبدادي. إن الهدف من الاضطهاد هو الاضطهاد، والهدف من التعذيب هو التعذيب وغاية السلطة هي السلطة، هل بدأت تفهم ما أقول الآن ؟

All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary.
People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
