 Noam Chomsky (1928- )

"How is it we have so much information, but know so little?"

"The role of intellectuals is to challenge authority, not to serve it."

"You cannot control your own population by force, but it can be distracted by consumption."

"The general population doesn't know what's happening. And it doesn't even know that it doesn't know."

"As long as the general population is passive, pathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome."
