Tyrant Quotes

And mental states may be inferred from actions. The tyrant rarely sends a handwritten note requesting the elimination of an enemy Picture Quote #1

Leisure is pain; take off our chariot wheels, how heavily we drag the load of life! Blest leisure is our curse; like that of Cain, it makes us wander, wander Earth around To fly that tyrant, thought Picture Quote #1

Is not the mighty mind, that son of heaven! By tyrant life dethroned, imprison'd, pain'd? By death enlarg'd, ennobled, deify'd? Death but entombs the body; life the soul Picture Quote #1

Tyranny is like the electric wiring in an old house. A tyrant dies, the new tyrant takes possession, and all he has to do is drop the switch Picture Quote #1

When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty, and there is nothing more to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader Picture Quote #1

If we must have a tyrant, let him at least be a gentleman who has been bred to the business, and let us fall by the axe and not by the butcher's cleaver Picture Quote #1

This tyrant, whole sole name blisters our tongues, was once thought honest; you have loved him well; he hath not touched you yet Picture Quote #1

But, o thou tyrant, do not repent these things, for they are heavier than all thy woes can stir. Therefore betake thee to nothing but despair Picture Quote #1

The tyrant custom, most grave senators, hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice driven bed of down Picture Quote #1

A woman who gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover - but will sooner or later find a tyrant Picture Quote #1

Revolt against a tyrant is legitimate; it can succeed. Revolt against human nature is doomed to failure Picture Quote #1

A strict belief in fate is the worst of slavery, imposing upon our necks an everlasting lord and tyrant, whom we are to stand in awe of night and day Picture Quote #1

Let us render the tyrant no aid; let us not hold the light by which he can trace the footprints of our flying brother Picture Quote #1

Every one with this writ may be a tyrant; if this commission be legal, a tyrant in a legal manner, also, may control, imprison, or murder any one within the realm Picture Quote #1

A collective tyrant, spread over the length and breadth of the land, is no more acceptable than a single tyrant ensconced on his throne Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want to kill a man. I’m not capable of killing a man. I wanted to kill a tyrant Picture Quote #1

I can’t imagine anyone who doesn’t think the world is safer without a tyrant who murdered his own people, used weapons of mass destruction against them and flouted the world for so many years Picture Quote #1

Fate is the friend of the good, the guide of the wise, the tyrant of the foolish, the enemy of the bad Picture Quote #1

Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery Picture Quote #1

A tyrant institutionalises stupidity, but he is the first servant of his own system and the first to be installed within it Picture Quote #1

Whence all this passion towards conformity anyway? Diversity is the word. Let man keep his many parts and you will have no tyrant states. Why, if they follow this conformity business, they’ll end up by forcing me, an invisible man, to become white, which is not a color but the lack of one. Must I strive towards colorlessness? But seriously and without snobbery, think of what the world would lose if that should happen. America is woven of many strands. I would recognize them and let it so remain Picture Quote #1

Fear is a tyrant and a despot, more terrible than the rack, more potent than the snake Picture Quote #1

I would not be beholden to a tyrant, for his acts of tyranny. For it is but usurpation in him to save, as their rightful lord, the lives of men over whom he has no title to reign Picture Quote #1

Democracies have been, and governments called, free; but the spirit of independence and the consciousness of unalienable rights, were never before transfused into the minds of a whole people... The feeling of equality which they proudly cherish does not proceed from an ignorance of their station, but from the knowledge of their rights; and it is this knowledge which will render it so exceedingly difficult for any tyrant ever to triumph over the liberties of our country Picture Quote #1

Tyranny seldom announces itself... In fact, a tyranny may exist without an individual tyrant. A whole government, even a democratically elected one, may be tyrannical Picture Quote #1

Nor is the guilt entirely with the warmongers, plutocrats and demagogues. If people permit exploitation and regimentation in any name, they deserve their slavery. A tyrant does not make his tyranny possible. It is made by the people and not otherwise Picture Quote #1

In a despotic government, the only principle by which the tyrant who is to move the whole machine means to regulate and manage the people is fear, by the servile dread of his power. But a free government, which of all others is far the most preferable, cannot be supported without virtue Picture Quote #1

Have you ever heard of a woman bloody dictator or tyrant? I think not. If there were more women in power, I think we would have more harmony, more engagement and less suffering and less conflict Picture Quote #1

Since bad men find the rule of kings no less burdensome than that of tyrants, the recognition of the right of private citizens to kill tyrants involves rather more chance of losing a king than of being relieved of a tyrant Picture Quote #1
