• Lo insidioso del miedo al qué dirán los demás es que rara vez les oyes decirlo. Te imaginas lo que dirían. Imaginas que les importas tanto. La fragilidad de nuestro propio ego se apodera de nosotros.

• We may as well face the fact, and face it squarely, that we are too much governed. The agencies of government have multiplied, their ramifications extended, their powers enlarged, and their sphere widened, until the whole system is top-heavy. We are drifting into dangerous and insidious paternalism, submerging the self-reliance of the citizen, and weakening the responsibility and stifling the initiative of the individual. We suffer not from too little legislation but from too much. We need fewer enactments and more repeals.

  Roland H. Hartley

• El abandono del patrón oro hizo posible que los estatistas del bienestar utilizaran el sistema bancario como medio para una expansión ilimitada del crédito. En ausencia del patrón oro, no hay forma de proteger los ahorros de la confiscación mediante la inflación. No existe ningún depósito de valor seguro. El gasto deficitario es simplemente un esquema para la confiscación oculta de la riqueza. El oro se interpone en este insidioso proceso. Es un protector de los derechos de propiedad. Si se comprende esto, no es difícil entender el antagonismo de los estatistas hacia el patrón oro.

• It is legitimate and necessary to ask oneself if this is not perhaps part of a new ideology of evil, perhaps more insidious and hidden, which attempts to pit human rights against the family and against man.

• David Foster Wallace: I think one of the insidious lessons about TV is the meta-lesson that you’re dumb. This is all you can do. This is easy, and you’re the sort of person who really just wants to sit in a chair and have it easy. When in fact there are parts of us, in a way, that are a lot more ambitious than that. And what we need, I think—and I’m not saying I’m the person to do it. But I think what we need is seriously engaged art, that can teach again that we’re smart. And that there’s stuff that TV and movies—although they’re great at certain things—cannot give us.

• It was only when I got to college that I realized that the rest of the world didn't run the way my world was run, and that there was a need for feminism. I'd thought it was all solved. There are people like my mom, clearly everyone is equal and it's all fine. Then I get into the world and I hear the things people are saying. Then I get to Hollywood and hear the very casual, almost insidious misogyny that just runs through so much of the fiction. It was just staggering to me.

• The first time we meet another person an insidious little voice in our heads says, "I might wear eyeglasses or be chunky around the hips or a girl, but at least I'm not Gay or Black or a Jew." Meaning: I may be me- but at least I have the good sense not to be YOU.

• The first murmurings from the liberal part of the U.S.A. that we were somehow in the wrong, brutal killers, bullying other countries; that we who put our lives on the line for our nation at the behest of our government should somehow be charged with murder for shooting our enemy.

• This, perhaps, goes to show that conditional self-esteem, as I have said for many years, is an insidious, real sickness, so much so that even Buddhists carelessly sneak it in and sometimes encourage their clients to achieve it.

• I killed your friends.” – Abigail “And I’m not happy about that. But your head wasn’t screwed on right. It’s easy to let the enemies in and listen to them sometimes, especially when they’re pretending to be your best friends who only want the best for you. At least that’s what they claim. They’re insidious bastards, telling you what you want to hear and using your emotions to manipulate you think doing their bidding.” – Sundown

• Actually, however, life begins less by reaching upward, than by turning upon itself. But what a marvelously insidious, subtle image of life a coiling vital principle would be! And how many dreams the leftward oriented shell, or one that did not conform to the rotation of its species, would inspire!

  Gaston Bachelard

• Before the Christian Church goes into eclipse anywhere there must first be a corrupting of her simple basic theology. She simply gets a wrong answer to the question, ‘What is God like?’ and goes on from there. Though she may continue to cling to a sound nominal creed, her practical working creed has become false. The masses of her adherents come to believe that God is different from what He actually is; and that is heresy of the most insidious and deadly kind

• La mejor protección contra la propaganda de cualquier tipo es reconocerla como lo que es. Sólo la oratoria oculta y no detectada es realmente insidiosa. Lo que llega al corazón sin pasar por la mente es probable que rebote y deje a la mente fuera de juego. La propaganda tomada de esa manera es como una droga que no sabes que estás tragando. El efecto es misterioso; después no sabes por qué te sientes o piensas como lo haces.

• Vayamos entonces, tú y yo, Cuando la tarde se extiende contra el cielo Como un paciente eterizado sobre una mesa; Vayamos, a través de ciertas calles medio desiertas, Los retiros murmurantes 5 De noches inquietas en hoteles baratos de una noche Y restaurantes de serrín con conchas de ostras: Calles que siguen como un tedioso argumento De insidiosa intención Para llevarte a una pregunta abrumadora ... 10 Oh, no preguntes, "¿Qué es?" Vayamos a hacer nuestra visita. En la sala las mujeres van y vienen Hablando de Miguel Ángel.

• The policy of letting the child 'do what he likes' is an insidious one, since the children are encouraged to continue always at their original superficial level, without receiving guidance in study. Furthermore, the 'three Rs,' the fundamental tools, are neglected as long as possible, with the result that the child's chance to develop his mind is greatly retarded. The policy of teaching words via pictures instead of by the alphabet tends to deprive the young child of the greatest reasoning tool of all.

• O ye whose years unfolding fair Are fresh with youth, and free from care, Should vice and indolence desire The garden of your souls to hire, No parleys hold-reject the suit, Nor let one seed the soil pollute. My child their first approach beware, With firmness break the insidious snare, Lest as the acorns grew and throve Into a sun-encircled grove, Thy sins, a dark o'ershadowing tree Shut out the light of Heaven from thee.

• Washington has seldom seen so numerous, so industrious or so insidious a lobby. There is every evidence that money without limit is being spent to sustain this lobby....

• We happen to live in an era that is incredibly wrapped up in notions of political correctness; everything is seen through the lens of politics. But being political and politically correct is just another way of fighting, another form of power and strategy, an insidious means of manipulation.
