Text Quotes
It is far more ignominious to die by justice than by an unjust sedition  (Sedition Quotes) If there is disturbance in the camp, the general’s authority is weak. If the banners and flags are shifted about, sedition is afoot. If the officers are angry, it means that the men are weary  (Sedition Quotes) There’s only one reason to be crucified under the Roman Empire, and that is for treason or sedition. Crucifixion, we have to understand, was not actually a form of capital punishment for Rome. In fact, it was often the case that the criminal would be killed first and then crucified.  (Sedition Quotes) Luxury, or a refinement on the pleasures and conveniences of life, had long been supposed the source of every corruption in government, and the immediate cause of faction, sedition, civil wars, and the total loss of liberty. It was, therefore, universally regarded as a vice, and was an object of declamation to all satyrists, and severe moralists  (Sedition Quotes) When Arthur Schlesinger Sr. pioneered the ‘presidential greatness poll’ in 1948, the top five were Lincoln, Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Jefferson. Only Wilson appears to be seriously fading, probably because his support for the World War I-era Sedition Act now seems outrageous; in this analogy, Woodrow is like the Doors and the Sedition Act is Oliver Stone  (Sedition Quotes) Passions are spiritual rebels and raise sedition against the understanding  (Sedition Quotes) Today, while celebrating the jihad victory, we once again invite those who have sided with aliens because of seduction against their nation, to give up sedition and evil and join peaceful life  (Sedition Quotes) Sedition is bred in the lap of luxury and its chosen emissaries are the beggared spendthrift and the impoverished libertine  (Sedition Quotes) What seems fair enough against a squalid huckster of bad liquor may take on a different face, if used by a government determined to suppress political opposition under the guise of sedition  (Sedition Quotes) It is plain there is not in nature a point of stability to be found; everything either ascends or declines; when wars are ended abroad, sedition begins at home; and when men are freed from fighting for necessity, they quarrel through ambition  (Sedition Quotes) History consists, for the greater part, of the miseries brought upon the world by pride, ambition, avarice, revenge, lust, sedition, hypocrisy, ungoverned zeal, and all the train of disorderly appetite  (Sedition Quotes) ... love is an act of sedition, a revolt against reason, an uprising in the body politic, a private mutiny  (Sedition Quotes) A victorious general must know how to employ severity, justness, and mildness by turns, if he would allay sedition or prevent it  (Sedition Quotes) It is necessary for the welfare of society that genius should be privileged to utter sedition, to blaspheme, to outrage good taste, to corrupt the youthful mind, and generally to scandalize one’s uncles  (Sedition Quotes) Religion is an act of sedition against reason. Whatever religion is most seductive and likely to draw in victims to surrender their skepticism is the worst  (Sedition Quotes) So this was a nest of radicals. She thought a hotbed of sedition would involve more gunpowder and secret handshakes, and less shuffling of feet and passing the sugar  (Sedition Quotes) The internet was supposed to liberate knowledge, but in fact it buried it, first under a vast sewer of ignorance, laziness, bigotry, superstition and filth and then beneath the cloak of political surveillance. Now... cyberspace exists exclusively to promote commerce, gossip and pornography. And of course to hunt down sedition. Only paper is safe. Books are the key. A book cannot be accessed from afar, you have to hold it, you have to read it  (Sedition Quotes) It was better to set up a monarchy themselves than to suffer a sedition to continue that must certainly end in one  (Sedition Quotes)
