Quote by Jonathan Swift
I said there was a society of men among us, bred up from their you

I said there was a society of men among us, bred up from their youth in the art of proving by words multiplied for the purpose, that white is black, and black is white, according as they are paid. To this society all the rest of the people are as slaves. – Jonathan Swift
