The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses.
Malcolm X
Power, Media, Control
THE MASSES SHOULD BE CONTROLLED
THEY SHOULD BE CONTAINED
SUBDUE THEIR THOUGHTS
UNDUE THEIR BRAINS
FOR WHAT THEY ARE TRAINED
TO BE SHOULD BE SLAVES
WE NEED TO BE IN CHARGE
OF HOW THEY BEHAVE
IN THEIR MENTAL SPACE WE SHOULD BARGE
IN AND INTRUDE
THEY SHOULD ONLY VALUE
THE SOCIAL INCLUDE
THEY ARE NEVER TO HAVE A CLUE
ONLY TO HAVE A CREW
OF A CLUELESS FEW
SEEKING MISCHIEF
WHEN THERE IS NOTHING TO DO
THIS RIFF
WE CAUSE
IS TO KEEP THEM FROM GLEE AND AWE

4:02PM-4:11PM
The more social media we have, the more we think we're connecting, yet we are really disconnecting from each other.
JR
Media, Social, Connecting
WE SHOULD DISCONNECT
FROM EACH OTHER
WE SHOULDN'T WANT TO REACH ANOTHER
PHYSICALLY
WE SHOULD REPROACH ANOTHER
DISMALLY
WE SHOULD BE SOCIALLY SICK YOU SEE
HOW SICK CAN WE
FORCE THEM TO BE?
OSTRACIZING
THE DIFFERENT FROM THEIR OWN SOCIETY
WE LIE TO SEE
THEM EAT THE TRUTH
OUR INFLUENCE OVER THEM
IS THE CAVITY
EATING THE TOOTH
WE WANT THEM DISTANT
TO FOCUS ONLY THEIR DIFFERENCES
WITHIN AN INSTANT
THEIR EMOTIONAL EMISSIONS
SHOULD BE RIDICULOUSLY ENDLESS
AND SENSELESS
THE DISUNITY IS WHAT WE WANT FROM THEM
UNIFICATION ISN'T

Social media is an amazing tool, but it's really the face-to-face interaction that makes a long-term impact.

Social media is changing the way we communicate and the way we are perceived, both positively and negatively. Every time you post a photo, or update your status, you are contributing to your own digital footprint and personal brand.
Amy Jo Martin
Time, Media, Personal
Social media is the ultimate equalizer. It gives a voice and a platform to anyone willing to engage.
Amy Jo Martin

Smart phones and social media expand our universe. We can connect with others or collect information easier and faster than ever.
Daniel Goleman
Universe, Smart, Media
For all my friends in the media who like quotes, mark this quote down. From this day on I'd like to be known as 'The Big Aristotle' because Aristotle once said, 'Excellence is not a singular act; it's a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.'
Shaquille O'Neal
Excellence, Media, Habit
Social media websites are no longer performing an envisaged function of creating a positive communication link among friends, family and professionals. It is a veritable battleground, where insults fly from the human quiver, damaging lives, destroying self-esteem and a person's sense of self-worth.
Anthony Carmona
Positive, Family, Media
The viral power of online media has proven how fast creative ideas can be spread and adopted, using tools like cellphones, digital cameras, micro-credit, mobile banking, Facebook, and Twitter. A perfect example? The way the Green Movement in Iran caught fire thanks to social media.
Tina Brown
Power, Fire, Media
The PC has improved the world in just about every area you can think of. Amazing developments in communications, collaboration and efficiencies. New kinds of entertainment and social media. Access to information and the ability to give a voice people who would never have been heard.
Bill Gates
Amazing, Media, Voice
It's fine to have social media that connects us with old friends, but we need tools that help us discover new people as well.
Ethan Zuckerman
Help, Media, Tools
We need to understand that we are not each others' enemies in this country. And it is only the political class that derives its power by creating friction. It is only the media that derives its importance by creating friction... that uses every little thing to create this chasm between people. This is not who we are.
Ben Carson
Power, Political, Media
The information you get from social media is not a substitute for academic discipline at all.
Bill Nye
Discipline, Media, Academic
Here's a nation, one of the founding pillars was freedom of speech and freedom of expression. And yet, we have imposed upon people restrictions on what they can say, on what they can think. And the media is the largest proponent of this, crucifying people who say things really quite innocently.
Ben Carson
Freedom, Media, Speech
I wanted to promote skateboarding as much as possible through different media.
Tony Hawk

It may be coincidence that the decline of newspapers has corresponded with the rise of social media. Or maybe not.
Ryan Holmes
Media, Rise, Social
Regarding social media, I really don't understand what appears to be the general population's lack of concern over privacy issues in publicizing their entire lives on the Internet for others to see to such an extent... but hey it's them, not me, so whatever.
Axl Rose
Privacy, Media, Internet
Mass media provides the essential link between the individual and the demands of the technological society.
Jacques Ellul
Society, Media, Individual
What the mass media offers is not popular art, but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like food, forgotten, and replaced by a new dish.
W. H. Auden
Art, Food, Media
Social media is a giant distraction to the ultimate aim, which is honing your craft as a songwriter. There are people who are exceptional at it, however, and if you can do both things, then that's fantastic, but if you are a writer, the time is better spent on a clever lyric than a clever tweet.
Bryan Adams
Time, Media, Clever

It amazes me sometimes that even intelligent people will analyze a situation or make a judgement after only recognizing the standard or traditional structure of a piece.
David Bowie
Situation, Judgement
It's a complete lie, why do people buy these papers? It's not the truth I'm here to say. You know, don't judge a person, do not pass judgement, unless you have talked to them one on one. I don't care what the story is, do not judge them because it is a lie.
Michael Jackson
Truth, Lie, Care
We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.
Carl Jung
Intelligence, Truth
Governments that block the aspirations of their people, that steal or are corrupt, that oppress and torture or that deny freedom of expression and human rights should bear in mind that they will find it increasingly hard to escape the judgement of their own people, or where warranted, the reach of international law.
William Hague
Freedom, Law, Rights
Every judgement of conscience, be it right or wrong, be it about things evil in themselves or morally indifferent, is obligatory, in such wise that he who acts against his conscience always sins.
Thomas Aquinas
Conscience, Wise, Evil
Property may be destroyed and money may lose its purchasing power; but, character, health, knowledge and good judgement will always be in demand under all conditions.
Roger Babson
Knowledge, Money, Health
I don't have time for their judgement and their stupidity and you know they lay down with their ugly wives in front of their ugly children and look at their loser lives and then they look at me and they say, 'I can't process it' well, no, you never will stop trying, just sit back and enjoy the show. You know?
Charlie Sheen
Time, Stupidity, Process
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Life, Death, Wise
Good judgement comes from experience. Sometimes, experience comes from bad judgement.
Christian Slater
Experience, Good, Judgement
Look. Art knows no prejudice, art knows no boundaries, art doesn't really have judgement in it's purest form. So just go, just go.
K. D. Lang
Art, Prejudice, Boundaries
I question the political judgement of those who would have the nerve to paint Christ white with his obvious African nose, lips and wooly hair.
John Henrik Clarke
Political, Hair, Question
Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don't fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.
Jim Rohn
Failure, Fail, Event
Judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgement.
Simon Bolivar
Experience, Judgement
Depend upon yourself. Make your judgement trustworthy by trusting it. You can develop good judgement as you do the muscles of your body - by judicious, daily exercise. To be known as a man of sound judgement will be much in your favor.
Grantland Rice
Trust, Good, Daily
Picking a best friend who stands up for what she believes in, is true to herself and allows you to be yourself without judgement of how 'cool' you are? Well, now you're picking a friend for life.
Renee Olstead
Life, Best, Cool
Don't be intimidated by people who seem to be experts. Hear their points of view and get their judgements. But at the end of day, you've got to make a judgement because it's not their life that's going to be affected so much as your future.
Robert Dallek
Life, Future, View
The only justice is to follow the sincere intuition of the soul, angry or gentle. Anger is just, and pity is just, but judgement is never just.
D. H. Lawrence
Anger, Justice, Soul
The stage is a place where I can be wholly myself. Even though you're in front of people almost to be judged, it is a place without judgement.
Florence Welch
Judgement, Stage, Judged
The Gospel announces that Jesus came to acquit the guilty. He came to judge and be judged in our place. Christ came to satisfy the deep judgment against us once and for all so that we could be free from the judgement of God, others, and ourselves.
Tullian Tchividjian
God, Deep, Free
As a kid I quite fancied the romantic, Bohemian idea of being an artist. I expect I thought I could escape from the difficulties of maths and spelling. Maybe I thought I would avoid the judgement of the establishment.

The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.
Aristotle
Equality, Inequality, Equal
As I often say, we have come a long way from the days of slavery, but in 2014, discrimination and inequality still saturate our society in modern ways. Though racism may be less blatant now in many cases, its existence is undeniable.
Al Sharpton
Society, Racism, Slavery
It is a wise man who said that there is no greater inequality than the equal treatment of unequals.
Felix Frankfurter
Inequality, Wise, Equal
My attitude to peace is rather based on the Burmese definition of peace - it really means removing all the negative factors that destroy peace in this world. So peace does not mean just putting an end to violence or to war, but to all other factors that threaten peace, such as discrimination, such as inequality, poverty.
Aung San Suu Kyi
War, Attitude, Peace
A man willing to work, and unable to find work, is perhaps the saddest sight that fortune's inequality exhibits under this sun.
Thomas Carlyle
Work, Sun, Inequality
Grave security concerns can arise as a result of demographic trends, chronic poverty, economic inequality, environmental degradation, pandemic diseases, organized crime, repressive governance and other developments no state can control alone. Arms can't address such concerns.
Ban Ki-moon
Alone, Poverty, Control
Global poverty is a complex web of interlinked problems. There is no one 'silver bullet' that will solve global inequality. Multiple contributing factors must be tackled in parallel. Yes, education alone is unlikely to lead to employment without economic reform to address the demand side in much of the developing world.
Adam Braun
Education, Alone, Poverty
We can not have equilibrium in this world with the current inequality and destruction of Mother Earth. Capitalism is what is causing this problem and it needs to end.
Evo Morales
Mother, Inequality, Earth
There is a correlation between economic inequality and personal violence. The explanation for the correlation isn't completely clear; there are a number of possibilities.
Steven Pinker
Violence, Inequality
Half the U.S. population owns barely 2 percent of its wealth, putting the United States near Rwanda and Uganda and below such nations as pre-Arab Spring Tunisia and Egypt when measured by degrees of income inequality.
Eric Alterman
Spring, Wealth, Inequality
Britain is a textbook case of how growing inequality leads to economic crisis. The years before the crash were marked by a sharp rise in remortgaging and the growth of 0 percent balance transfer credit cards. By 2008 the UK had the highest ratio of household debt to GDP of any major economy.
Frances O'Grady
Growth, Balance, Credit
All that a good government aims at... is to add no unnecessary and artificial aid to the force of its own unavoidable consequences, and to abstain from fortifying and accumulating social inequality as a means of increasing political inequalities.
James F. Cooper
Good, Government, Political
You can't solve a problem as complex as inequality in one legal clause.
Theresa May
Legal, Inequality, Problem
What are we having this liberty for? We are having this liberty in order to reform our social system, which is full of inequality, discrimination and other things, which conflict with our fundamental rights.
B. R. Ambedkar
Conflict, Liberty, Rights
Americans have so far put up with inequality because they felt they could change their status. They didn't mind others being rich, as long as they had a path to move up as well. The American Dream is all about social mobility in a sense - the idea that anyone can make it.
Fareed Zakaria
Change, Path, Dream
Even the striving for equality by means of a directed economy can result only in an officially enforced inequality - an authoritarian determination of the status of each individual in the new hierarchical order.
Friedrich August von Hayek
Equality, Inequality
Diversity on the bench is critical. As practitioners, you need judges who 'get it!' We need judges who understand what discrimination feels like. We need judges who understand what inequality feels like. We need judges who understand the subtleties of unfair treatment and who are willing to call it out when they see it!
Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Diversity, Inequality
To understand the Left, one must understand that in its view the greatest evil is material inequality. The Left is more troubled by economic inequality than by evil as humanity has generally understood the term.
Dennis Prager
Humanity, Evil, Greatest
One of the reasons inequality gets so deep in this country is that everyone wants to be rich. That's the American ideal. Poor people don't like talking about poverty because even though they might live in the projects surrounded by other poor people and have, like, ten dollars in the bank, they don't like to think of themselves as poor.
Jay-Z
Deep, Poverty, Inequality
That's part of American greatness, is discrimination. Yes, sir. Inequality, I think, breeds freedom and gives a man opportunity.
Lester Maddox
