Diplomatic intervention took place last week on our part. What can diplomatic intervention do now? We have great and vital interests in the independence-and integrity is the least part-of Belgium. If Belgium is compelled to submit to allow her neutrality to be violated, of course the situation is clear.
Edward Grey, 1st Viscount Grey of FallodonRelated topics

People can go to the extreme like what we saw during the Cultural Revolution. For instance, in China, when people take everything into their own hands, then you cannot govern the place. It was the people taking power into their own hands. Now that is what you mean by democracy if you take it to the full swing.
Donald Tsang
Thus, then, stands the case. It is good, that authors should be remunerated; and the least exceptionable way of remunerating them is by a monopoly. Yet monopoly is an evil. For the sake of the good we must submit to the evil; but the evil ought not to last a day longer than is necessary for the purpose of securing the good.
Thomas Babington Macaulay

Franz von Papen
