Reverse Brute

Famous quotes containing the words reverse and/or brute:

    During the late war [the American Revolution] I had an infallible rule for deciding what [Great Britain] would do on every occasion. It was, to consider what they ought to do, and to take the reverse of that as what they would assuredly do, and I can say with truth that I was never deceived.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Every woman adores a Fascist,
    The boot in the face, the brute
    Brute heart of a brute like you.
