“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

It amazes me how people can have their equipment in this condition. It would drive me nuts! I'd have to strip ever part of that to restore it to its original beauty. Or am I a bit OCD
Such a shame though. This is such a great TT but I wouldn't pay the amount it's managed to reach on bids due to its condition.

“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

Not really Jamie. The important turntable parts look OK. I'd sell the arm, bin the plinth and lid and make a new base. If the bearing was knackered I'd turn a new one up on the lathe. Any half decent machine shop could do it for a modest cost. The bearing is likely to be OK anyway. They seem to last.
