More From Umberto Eco

The enemy of the black is not the white. the enemy of capitalist is not communist, the enemy of homosexual is not heterosexual, the enemy of jew is not arab, the enemy of youth is not the old, the enemy of hip is not redneck, the enemy of chicano is not gringo and the enemy of women is not men. we all have the same enemy. the enemy is the tyranny of the dull mind. the enemy is every expert who practices technocratic manipulation, the enemy is every proponent of standardization and the enemy is every victim who is so dull and lazy and weak as to allow himself to be manipulated and standardized.

If americans wish to preserve a country they will recognize, then the first step is to recognize the enemy. public education is the enemy. the entertainment industry is the enemy. the corporate culture is the enemy. the advertising industry is the enemy. and most of the politicians in both parties are the enemy. an enemy is defined as anybody, or any organization, which is attacking the traditional beliefs of americans.

People always fear change. people feared electricity when it was invented, didn't they? people feared coal, they feared gas-powered engines... there will always be ignorance, and ignorance leads to fear. but with time, people will come to accept their silicon masters.
Inspirational Fear Ignorance
I feel it's better to be loved and respected. if people fear you, you can get killed. if you're feared, nobody likes you. if you're feared nobody treats you the right way. you never get the right answers. you ask somebody if this is good, they'll tell you it's good even if it's bad. nobody wants to be feared. you want to be respected.
