"What a country calls its vital economic interests are not things that help its people live, but things that help it make war. Petroleum is a more likely cause of international conflict than wheat. Thus when war is waged it is for the purpose of safeguarding or increasing one's capacity to make war."

—Simone Weil, "The Need for Roots," posthumously published, 1949

And no boss over his head."

Looking down the barrel of an Armalite
I don't want to spend the rest of my days
Keeping our of trouble like the soldiers say

Looking at the walls of a prison cell
I don't ever want to play the part
Of a statistic on a government chart."

—"Invisible Sun," The Police, 1981
