“Man is an intelligence, not served by, but in servitude to his organs.”

“Man is so intelligent that he feels impelled to invent theories to account for what happens in the world. Unfortunately, he is not quite intelligent enough, in most cases, to find correct explanations. So that when he acts on his theories, he behaves very often like a lunatic.”

“Without economic security, the love of servitude cannot possibly come into existence”

“...most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution.”

“Cynical realism—it's the intelligent man's best excuse for doing nothing in an intolerable situation”

“The question of the next generation will not be one of how to liberate the masses, but rather, how to make them love their servitude.”

“which is better - to be born stupid into an intelligent society or intelligent into an insane one?”
