"There are things so horrible that even the dark is afraid of them.

Fear
"Non-democratic regimes always need to mobilize their people against external enemies in order to maintain internal stability."

Peace
"The three main sources of scepticism are first, that not every people desires freedom; second, that democracy in certain parts of the world would be dangerous; and third, that there is little the world's democracies can do to advance freedom outside their countries."
People
"Just as the 99% of Soviet citizens who supported the Soviet regime in 1985 was no indication of what the people inside the USSR really thought, the army of true believers that we think we see in the Arab world is an illusion."
