“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.”

A rather stunning re-release of one of my favourite albums for its 50th Anniversary. SQ is excellent as is the pressing, a 1/2 speed cut using Neummann VMS80 lathe, taken from 96kHz copy of the original master re-mixed by Steven Wilson. He must have taken time and care with this one, the detail and definition is quite stunning.
