Art

“There is no art without eyes that see it as art.
-Jacques Rancière

Visibility of Words

“All men recognize the right of revolution; that is, the right to refuse allegiance to, and to resist, the government, when its tyranny or its inefficiency are great and unendurable.”
-Henry David Thoreau

(On Civil Disobedience, Classic Books America, 4)

A Relationship with government

“How does it become a man to behave toward this American government today? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it. I cannot for an instant recognize that political organization as my government which is the slave’s government also.”
-Henry David Thoreau

(On Civil Disobedience, Classic Books America, 4)

Soldiers

“A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart. They have no doubt that it is a damnable business in which they are concerned; they are all peaceably inclined. Now, what are they? Men at all? or small movable forts and magazines, at the service of some unscrupulous man in power?”
-Henry David Thoreau

(On Civil Disobedience, Classic Books America, 3)
