Every country, religion or organization tends to get the leader it deserves: the leader who addresses them on their level, however low that may be, and who is able to make their darkness look light. We create structures in which only liars and dissemblers can thrive; we choose the clever over the wise; and then entertain ourselves by exposing them for what they always were. People like us.

After most revolutions, one one more things is required: a further revolution. There is no system of government that can improve the lot of unexamined lives. Unexamined lives are asleep to all things. Such lives frequently know what they do not want, but do not know what they do want. So they may cry with passion and power, ‘Reform the system!’ But they can never improve the system. They can merely replace it with something that malfunctions in different ways.
For they themselves are the problem.
