Tyranny leads by following the mob.

Tyranny is always better organised than liberty.

Tyranny feeds on fears.

When a tyrant dies, his rule is over - when a martyr dies, his rules begins.

Tyrants don't need any reason.

Remove the fear and you remove the power.

If a person has no delicacy, he has you in his power.

Man is born free but everywhere is in chains.

No-one is perfectly free until all are free.

A tyrant doesn't mind being hated - as long as he is feared.

You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist.

The greater the power, the greater the abuse.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for the good to do nothing.

No man can terrorise a whole nation unless we are all accomplices.

From fanaticism to barbarism is but a single step.
