Idlers Do Not Make History:

The Future Cannot Be Legislated. All That Can Be Done Is To Anticipate Its Most Important Movements And To Clear The Path For Them.

But What Right Had I To These Highest Joys, When All Around Me Was Nothing But Misery And Struggle For A Moldy Bit Of Bread; When Whatsoever I Should Spend To Enable Me To Live In That World Of Higher Emotions Must Needs Be Taken From The Very Mouths Of Those Who Grew The Wheat And Had Not Bread Enough For Their Children?

When We Ask For The Abolition Of The State And Its Organs We Are Always Told That We Dream Of A Society Composed Of Men Better Than They Are In Reality. But No; A Thousand Times, No. All We Ask Is That Men Should Not Be Made Worse Than They Are, By Such Institutions!

It Is Only By The Abolition Of The State, By The Conquest Of Perfect Liberty By The Individual, By Free Agreement, Association, And Absolute Free Federation That We Can Reach Communism — The Possession In Common Of Our Social Inheritance, And The Production In Common Of All Riches.

We Take Men For What They Are Worth - And That Is Why We Hate The Government Of Man By Man, And That We Work With All Our Might - Perhaps Not Strong Enough - To Put An End To It.
