"If freedom is short of weapons, we must compensate with willpower"

"The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people"

Compared to the Kaczinksy quotes from this thread I have to say that these are mostly lame truisms.

[mdp2021]

> [Death in the battlefield] is what the youth is for, after all

...Which suggests (cpr. the "treasure" quote) how quote dropping is mostly a leisurely activity, given broad statements.

> I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few

...Which suggests - hopefully - how quote dropping is mostly a leisurely activity, given its non exhaustive intrinsic nature.

Edit: related (with the first branch):

> He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future

Put the three together ("treasure", "battlefield", "owning"), the whole idea gets a sinister tone; take "treasure" alone, it may even raise "awww"s - without substance.
