<title>Litany Against Fear</title>
<lines>
<line>I must not fear.</line>
<line>Fear is the mind-killer.</line>
<line>Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.</line>
<line>I will face my fear.</line>
<line>I will permit it to pass over me and through me.</line>
<line>And when it has gone past,</line>
<line>I will turn the inner eye to see its path.</line>
<line>Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.</line>
<line>Only I will remain.</line>

<title>Politics as Repeat Phenomenon</title>
<lines>
<line>Governments, if they endure,</line>
<line>tend increasingly toward aristocratic forms.</line>
<line>None in history has been known to evade this pattern.</line>
<line>And as the aristocracy develops,</line>
<line>government tends more and more to act </line>
<line>exclusively in the interests of the ruling class</line>
<line> -- whether that class be hereditary royalty,</line>
<line>oligarchs of financial empires,</line>
<line>or entrenched bureaucracy.</line>
