In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.Friedrich Nietzsche


Banksy


Nelson Mandela


We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government, nor are we for this party nor against the other but we are for justice and mercy and truth and peace and true freedom, that these may be exalted in our nation, and that goodness, righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity with God, and with one another, that these things may abound.Edward Burrough, 1659 – from ‘Quaker Faith and Practice’


“It is dangerous to be right on matters on which the established authorities are wrong”. Voltaire


“One generation plants the trees…Another gets the shade.” Chinese Proverb

Einstein on simplicity and understanding

“As I see it, the object of Government is the welfare of the people. The liberty of people to carry on their business should not be abridged unless the larger interests of the many are concerned. When the interests of the many are concerned, the interests of the few must yield. It is the purpose of the Government to see not only that the legitimate interests of the few are protected but that the welfare and rights of the many are conserved. These are the principles which we must remember in any consideration of this question. This, I take it, is sound Government — not politics. Those are the essential basic conditions under which Government can be of service.”

Franklin Roosevelt’s Portland Speech (http://newdeal.feri.org/speeches/1932a.htm)

“The price of freedom is eternal vigilance”

Thomas Jefferson

“To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards out of men”.

Abraham Lincoln

“Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.”

Albert Einstein

Peace is …

“ … not the absence of war; it is the presence of justice.”
Martin Luther King Jnr.

“ … not only better than war, but infinitely more arduous.”
George Bernard Shaw

“ … of little value to someone who is dying of hunger or cold.”
Dalai Lama

“ … not that which passeth understanding. It is understanding which bringeth peace.”
Helen Keller

“The land along the fence line is not MOD land”: said PC Davidson (dog handler)

‘There is an assumed right to walk along the fence line’: said PC Smith 1706 (witnessed by PC Bridges)

These statements are interesting as the officers clearly give permission to anyone to walk along the security fence line without fear of arrest.
