“The real rulers in Washington are invisible, and exercise power from behind the scenes.” -Felix Frankfurter, Supreme Court Justice “The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.” -Benjamin Disraeli, first Prime Minister of England, in a novel he published in 1844 called Coningsby, the New Generation “Great nations are simply the operating fronts of behind-the-scenes, vastly ambitious individuals who had become so effectively powerful because of their ability to remain invisible while operating behind the national scenery.” -Buckminster Fuller, Critical Path “Gentlemen, I have had men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank.
