Coffee 32-projects in progress; a collection of quotes on revolution

2 days till the halfway point, 8 days till the mayan calendar recycles (and/or the end of the world) and 28 days without caffeine (non-ambient)
The primary matters under discussion here are:
1) The current economic war with China
2) The removal through term limits of the current corrupt government, the implementation of these concepts.
3) The implementation in Long term, short term and immediate term intelligence in government generally, economic planning and the current world war (world war c)
4) The practical application of the Hologram universe.

I was looking for a quote (below) from Jefferson (a patriot) and Hitler (also a patriot, but ultimately a psychopath; but only dangerous when he found power without limits) and found a collection of quotes justifying the non-violent overthrow of the corrupting influences of a series of interminable successive terms for congress.  Oddly, while hitler was extensively quoted I had to find the quote I was looking for elsewhere.

"When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty" 
 -- Thomas Jefferson

"It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from its
 government."
 -- Thomas Paine

"Most ignorance is vincible ignorance. We don’t know because 
 we don’t want to know."
 -- Aldous Huxley
"The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the
 federal government are few and defined. Those which are to
 remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."
 -- James Madison said in the Federalist Papers, No. 45

"So long as the people do not care to exercise their freedom,
 those who wish to tyrannize will do so; for tyrants are active
 and ardent, and will devote themselves in the name of any
 number of gods, religious and otherwise, to put shackles upon
 sleeping men."
 -- Voltaire, 1764
"When once a republic is corrupted there is no possibility of
 remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the
 corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other
 correction is either useless or a new evil."
 –- Thomas Jefferson on the necessity of the impeachment
    provisions to our Constitution
"The World is not dangerous because of those who do harm but
 because of those who look at it without doing anything."
 -- Albert Einstein
"Experience teaches us to be most on our guard to protect
 liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent. Men
 born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their
 liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty
 lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning
 but without understanding."
 -- Justice Louis Brandeis
"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."
 -- Thomas Jefferson
"When the people fear their government, there is Tyranny;
 when the government fears the people, there is Liberty."
 -- Thomas Jefferson

"You only have the freedoms you are willing to fight and die for."
 -- Thomas Jefferson

"Wars are not paid for in wartime, the bill comes later."
 -- Benjamin Franklin
"When even one American -- who has done nothing wrong --
 is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth,
 then all Americans are in peril."
 -- Harry S. Truman
"The Greatest Enemy Of Knowledge Is Not Ignorance...
 ...It Is The Illusion Of Knowledge"
 -- Stephen Hawking
"The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable."
 -- James A. Garfield quotes (American President (20), 1831-1881)

"We the People are the rightful masters of both congress and
 the courts -- not to overthrow the Constitution, but to
 overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution."
 -- Abraham Lincoln
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will
 make violent revolution inevitable."
 -- John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is
 also what it takes to sit down and listen.
 -- Sir Winston Churchill
"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip  
 the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is 
 indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just 
 as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached 
 a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has 
 closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of 
 the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and 
 blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto 
 the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I 
 have done. And I am Caesar."
 -- Julius Caesar
"Dissent is the highest form of patriotism."
 -- Howard Zinn
"To criticize one's country is to do it a service .... Criticism,
 in short, is more than a right; it is an act of patriotism - a
 higher form of patriotism, I believe, than the familiar rituals
 and national adulation."
 -- U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright

"To question your government is not unpatriotic --
 to not question your government is unpatriotic."
 -- Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.)
"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely
 believe they are free."
 -- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"The problems in the world today are so enormous they cannot 
 be solved with the level of thinking that created them."
 -- Albert Einstein
"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing 
 invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them
 under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty,
 to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for 
 their future security."
 -- "The Declaration of Independence"
"The welfare of the people in particular has always been the 
 alibi of tyrants."
 -- Albert Camus
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for
 lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"
 -- Benjamin Franklin
"All war is based on deception" 
 -- Sun Tzu

Lastly: When a Government leads a country to ruin, not only is it a right, but it is a duty for every citizen to rebel. (Hitler, Mein Kampf.)
