When people talk to me about tyranny, it makes me laugh and gives me the impression that people suffer from amnesia.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There's a certain amount of tyranny in all of us to some extent, and in some people it's much more developed than in others. It's a different balance which makes us all different.
It's a weakness of mine to forget what it is I've just been talking about so that when people make witty allusions to it, I stare at them open-mouthed, not knowing what they're talking about.
A nation that forgets its past can function no better than an individual with amnesia.
Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it without a sense of ironic futility.
The whole melodrama of the Middle East would be improved if amnesia were as common here as it is in melodramatic plots.
Let us not suffer from a national amnesia that causes us to forget who and what we are.
Tyranny is always better organized than freedom.
I have a very, very good memory, and I always remember the people who have done right by me and the people who have done wrong by me.
Tyranny naturally arises out of democracy.
