Gore Vidal: ‘The Most Interesting Man in the World’
#3
Any American who is prepared to run for president should automatically, by definition, be disqualified from ever doing so. -Gore Vidal

Half of the American people have never read a newspaper. Half never voted for President. One hopes it is the same half. Gore Vidal

I'm a born-again atheist. -Gore Vidal

Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn. -Gore Vidal

Today's public figures can no longer write their own speeches or books, and there is some evidence that they can't read them either. -Gore Vidal

One of so many great interviews with Vidal HERE.
"Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws. - Mayer Rothschild
"Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience! People are obedient in the face of poverty, starvation, stupidity, war, and cruelty. Our problem is that grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem!" - Howard Zinn
"If there is no struggle there is no progress. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and never will" - Frederick Douglass
