    “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!”

    Next we’ll be seeing teenagers suing Raleigh for falling off their bikes.

    She chose to carry a cookie in her hand instead of the hot drink, her grandmother thought this was fine but it's still Starbucks fault?

    Really?

    You can blame the claim culture lawyers for a lot of this.....keeeerching!

    You cant knock it as easy money though......shes done alright there....If starbucks lawyers cant defend such a claim we are all stuffed

    We all pay for this shit in increased prices and insurance. The legal (professsion?) is as greedy as hell and will jump at this sort of twisted opportunity.

    I blame the judges, they have the power to tell the lawyers to stop wasting the courts time with such nonsense

    Just another upsetting example of how the law fails us again. Why should the staff be responsible for how someone carries their drinks, they were probably busy and why would you offer a tray for 2 drinks and a cookie, especially when there was actually an adult who was a family member with her? If the nan wasn’t liable why should the cafe be...

    I'd be interested to see how quickly she manages to waste all the money. Can't imagine her hanging on to it for very long.
