Grievance Quotes - Page 7

• We've elected an untested prima donna, zero, zilch, nada experience, and it's coming home to roost, clear for one and all to see, and the guy thinks he's better and smarter than everybody else, is an aristocrat, an elitist, and is hell-bent on getting even with whatever he thinks the grievances of America have been in the past. Barack Obama equals politics of grievance. He has rallied an entire nation against him, and, believe me, it's a larger number of people than you would ever know, because the media of course is not portraying these numbers accurately.

• Mientras América ha sido la tierra de promisión para los europeos y sus descendientes, ha sido el valle de la muerte para millones de desdichados hijos de África... Mientras ofrecíamos votos en el santuario de la Libertad... mientras jurábamos hostilidad irreconciliable a sus enemigos... mientras implorábamos al Dios de los Ejércitos que fuera testigo de nuestra resolución de vivir libres o morir... estábamos imponiendo a nuestros semejantes, que difieren de nosotros en complexión, una esclavitud diez mil veces más cruel que el extremo de aquellos agravios y opresiones de los que nos quejábamos.

• How close beneath the surface, even in the happiest family, is the chronic grievance! I sometimes think that tinderboxes are inert and powder kegs mere talcum compared to the explosive possibilities in the most commoplace domestic situation.

• Esta mañana, las noticias y las imágenes de televisión procedentes de Estados Unidos me han conmocionado. Es imposible comprender plenamente la maldad que ha conjurado un ataque tan cobarde y depravado contra miles de personas inocentes. No puede haber causa o agravio que pueda justificar una violencia tan incalificable. De hecho, un ataque de este tipo es un atentado no sólo contra los objetivos, sino una ofensa contra la libertad y los derechos de todas las naciones civilizadas.

• Creo que [Donald Trump] ha sabido aprovechar muchas quejas. Y tiene un talento para establecer una conexión con sus seguidores que supera algunos de los parámetros tradicionales de cómo dirigir una campaña o comportarse como candidato presidencial. Será interesante ver cómo se desarrolla esto a lo largo de su presidencia.

• For my part I love sleepy fellows, and the more ignorant the better. Damn your wide-awake and knowing chaps. As for sleepiness, itis one of the noblest qualities of humanity. There is something sociable about it, too. Think of those sensible & sociable millions of good fellows all taking a good long friendly snooze together, under the sod--no quarrels, no imaginary grievances, no envies, heart-burnings, & thinking how much better that other chap is off--none of this: but all equally free-&-easy, they sleep away & reel off their nine knots an hour, in perfect amity.

• There are some people who do not want this thing to continue to work, and that's what they're doing is all about. They don't want to unify. They don't want this thing to work. That's the whole point of going forth with grievance after grievance after grievance and victim after victim after victim, because this inherent system... There is an all-out assault on the unity of this country. There are people whose express purpose is to rip it apart.

• I'm not opposed to reaching out Hispanics. I'm all for reaching out to everybody! As Americans. Not as members of groups, and not treating people as though they're legitimate members of some grievance group, but reaching out to them as human beings.

• Hay analogías históricas, que no son exactas, por supuesto, pero se acercan lo suficiente como para ser preocupantes. Esto tiene un tufillo a la Alemania nazi de los primeros tiempos. [Hitler apelaba a grupos con quejas similares y les daba respuestas disparatadas, pero al menos eran respuestas; estos grupos no las obtenían en ningún otro sitio. El problema eran los judíos y los bolcheviques.

• Think of these pages as graffiti maybe, and where I have scratched up in a public place my longings and loves, my grievances and indecencies, be reminded in private of your own. In that way, at least, we can hold a kind of converse.

• This comes from Mike Gonzalez at the Daily Signal: [ Howard] Zinn's history "set the stage for the grievance mongering that passes for history classes today, and is still widely used. It has sold over 2 million copies since it was first published in 1980 and continues to sell over 100,000 copies a year because it is required reading at many of our high schools and colleges. That's a lot of young minds."

• Russia could be, in fact, it would have to be a different Russia, but it could be a splendid ally. I will say this for the Russians: on their - in their favor, they have the intellectual capacity and the habits of mind to act in the world on a strategic scale, and were they do to so in service of a better cause than their current set of grievances, they would be a natural partner.

• Los crímenes de odio han aumentado desde la elección de Donald Trump. Así que no me sorprende. Estoy esperanzado, muy vigilante. Estamos viendo lo mismo que pasó en 1933, cuando un político aviva miedos y agravios para unirlos a una causa nacionalista. Pero el nacionalismo excluyente no es nacionalismo, eso es xenofobia.

• I feel that we're dividing along class lines for the first time in our history. Now one thing that has happened in this reaction to globalization is that the elites are not respectful of the values of those who are ordinary citizens, so we seem to be dividing ourselves into ever-smaller identity groups, each with its own narrative, each with its own grievance, and that's a problem.

• But if you close your eyes and listen to Palin and her most irate supporters constantly squawk or bellyache or tweet about how unfair a ride she gets from evil mustache-twirling elites and RINO saboteurs, she sounds like a professional victimologist, the flip side of any lefty grievance group leader. She’s becoming Al Sharpton, Alaska edition. The only difference being, she wears naughty-librarian glasses instead of a James Brown ‘do.

• He tenido una docena de personas que me han dicho, quizá más, '¿Qué habría pasado si Michael Brown hubiera disparado y matado a Darren Wilson? ¿Crees que ahora estaría libre? ¿Crees que ya no habría sido acusado?". La gente simplemente ve este doble rasero manifiesto delante de ellos que viene en la larga línea de un montón de agravios que se han acumulado con el tiempo debido a la dinámica de Ferguson y, francamente, la dinámica de la raza en Estados Unidos en general.
