    “That is the way of youth and life in general: that we do not understand the strategy until after the campaign is over.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “... the idea of a classless society is ... a disastrous mirage which cannot be maintained without tyranny of the few over the many. It is even more pernicious culturally than politically, not because the monolithic state forces the party line upon its intellectuals and artists, but because it has no social patterns to reflect.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
