"When the power love is greater the love of power, the world will know peace"
- Jimmi Hendrix
"To make and apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe"
-Carl Sagan
It has often been said that the truth is the first casualty of war
It is, but the same could be said of life
From birth we are threatened and beaten into submission
By family, church, school, and state
From then on we are easy game for the powermongers
Like pathetic circus dogs we hunt out praise
Or, when our true nature finds it's way to the surface
We hide in the darkness, our tail between our legs
At all costs we are prevented from realizing our own potential
We are conditioned into being passive observers
If the ring master offers war,
We have been conditioned to passively accept it
War can only exist through passive acceptance
It is nothing but a demonstration of the weakness of human will
- "Yes sir, I will" Crass
