Rory Bremner
We should always be disposed to believe that that which appears white is really black, if the hierarchy of the Church so decides.
Saint Ignatius
When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty, and there is nothing more to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader.
Plato
