State Approved Private

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or private:

“Today democracy, liberty, and equality are words to fool the people. No nation can progress with such ideas. They stand in the way of action. Therefore we frankly abolish them. In the future each man will serve the interest of the state with absolute obedience. Let him who refuses beware.”
—Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977)

“All the events which make the annals of the nations are but the shadows of our private experiences.”
