    Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)

    We are trying to construct a more inclusive society.... We are going to make a country in which no one is left out.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    Those are my enemies: they want to overthrow and to construct nothing themselves. They say: “All that is worthless”—and want to create no value themselves.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
