Treason Quotes

It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

Lord Acton

Robert Frost

Any appeasement of tyranny is treason to this republic and to the democratic ideal.

William Allen White

The last temptation is the greatest treason to do the right deed for the wrong reason.

T. S. Eliot
