“The world is neither good nor evil; it’s just controlled by money.”
“Some of the most important men in the U.S. are afraid of something.
They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so
pervasive, so watchful, and so complete, that they better not speak
above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”
- President Woodrow Wilson
