RANDOM QUOTE

“Since I entered politics, I have chiefly
had men's views confided to me privately.
Some of the biggest men in the
United States, in the field of commerce
and manufacture are afraid of somebody, are
afraid of something. They know that there
is a power somewhere so organized, so
subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete,
so pervasive, that they better not speak
above their breath when they speak in
condemnation of it.”

Woodrow Wilson
