Nothing is a bigger waste of time than regretting the past and worrying about the future.

What I did at Ole Miss had nothing to do with going to classes. My objective was to destroy the system of white supremacy.

Integration is the biggest con job ever pulled on any group of people, any nationality in the world. It was a plot by white liberals to gain black political power for themselves and their wild ideas, and for a few black bourgeoisie who were paid to exercise leverage as black spokesmen.

I chose as my target the University of Mississippi, which in 1960 was the holiest temple of white supremacy in America, next to the U.S. Capitol and the White House, both of which were under the control of segregationists and their collaborators.

The combination of a workable basic formula and the capacity to improve over time is what one hopes for in any aspect of society: business, government, the non-profit sector.

Even a war zone looks peaceful in most places, most of the time.

Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise.

Without the political parties and the volunteering work of their members day in, day out, we would have a very different sort of politics and society.
