om man nu måste gilla nån ”skön gammal stofil” så kan man gilla howard zinn

”You are saying our problem is civil disobedience. That is not our problem. Our problem is civil OBEDIENCE. Our problem is the numbers of people all over the world who have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. [...] Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world, in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. THAT’S our problem. ”

från the zinn reader, 1970.

prettiness


”You don’t owe prettiness to anyone. Not to your boyfriend/spouse/partner, not to your co-workers, especially not to random men on the street. You don’t owe it to your mother, you don’t owe it to your children, you don’t owe it to civilization in general. Prettiness is not a rent you pay for occupying a space marked ‘female’.”

- Erin McKean

Konsumenträtt

”People are persuaded by persons whom they do not know, to enter into contracts that they do not understand, to purchase goods that they do not want, with money that they have not got.”

Citat ur min civilrättsbok, av engelsk domare som beskriver konsumentens situation. Kan inte beskriva det på ett bättre sätt. Tack och lov för konsumentköp- och konsumenttjästlagarna!!

a.k.a. ”den gode kapitalisten”

”att inte beskatta arv vore som att välja laget till OS 2020 genom att ta ut de äldsta sönerna till dem som vann guld i OS 2000.”

- warren buffett, också känd som snubben med en personlig förmögenhet på 62 miljarder dollar.

vad en kvinna vill ha: en riktig man

”kvinnan skall icke tro dem som säga, att hon är svag. hon kan vara så stark i viljan och skarpsinnig i förnuftet, att hon kan lära sig vad helst hon behöver till livets rediga uppehälle, ära och rent behag.”

- carl jonas love almqvist 1838
