"Money is a new form of slavery, and distinguishable from the old simply by the fact that it is impersonal, there is no human relation between master and slave." - Leo Tolstoy

"None are more enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." - Goethe

"The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented.
Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin.
Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them power to create money, and with the flick of pen they will create enough money to buy it back again...
Take this great power away from them and all great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for then this would be a better and happier world to live in.
But if you want to continue to be slaves of the banks and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let the bankers continue to create money and control credit." - Sir Josiah Stamp Director, Bank of England 1928-1941 (reputed to be the 2nd richest man in England at the time)

"The process by which banks create money is so simple that the mind is repelled" - John Kenneth Galbraith
Economist

"Whoever controls the volume of money in our country is absolute master of all industry and commerce...
and when you realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by the few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate." - James A. Garfield, assassinated President of the United States

"Each and everytime time a bank makes a loan, new bank credit is created -new deposits- brand new money" - Graham F. Towers
Governor, Bank of Canada, 1934-54

"I am afraid that the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that banks can and do create money
...And they do control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Governments and hold in the hollow of their hands the destiny of the people." - Reginald McKenna, past Chairman of the Board Midlands Bank of England
