Chief Seattle: "The earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth."

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of the mankind. Mankind, that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps its fate that today is the fourth of July. You will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression or persecution, but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live, to exist. And should we win the day, the fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when we declared in one voice, We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We are going to live on. We are going to survive. Today we celebrate our independence day.

John Spartan and Edward Friendly, From the movie Demolition Man

"I guess you weren't part of the Cockteau plan."
"Greed, deception, abuse of power; that's no plan."
"That's why everybody is down here?"
"You got that right. You see, according to Cockteau's plan, I'm the enemy because I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I'm the kind of guy that could sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs or the side order of greasy fries? I want high cholesterol. I would eat bacon and butter and buckets of cheese, okay? I want to smoke Cuban cigars the size of Cincinnati in the non- smoking section. I want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-O all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why, because I might suddenly feel the need to, okay? Pal, I've seen the future. Know what it is? It's a 47 year-old virgin sitting around in his pajamas, sipping a banana-broccoli shake, singing `I'm the Oscar Meyer weiner.' You live up top, you live how he wants. Your other choice, come down here and maybe starve to death."

or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not
only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
