If I were asked to answer the following question: What is slavery? and I should answer in one word, It is murder!, my meaning would be understood at once. No extended argument would be required to show that the power to remove a man's mind, will, and personality, is the power of life and death, and that it makes a man a slave. It is murder. Why, then, to this other question: What is property? may I not likewise answer, It is robbery!, without the certainty of being misunderstood; the second proposition being no other than a transformation of the first?

Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (French anarchist) in his 1840 book "What is Property? Or, an Inquiry into the Principle of Right and of Government. "

Emotional Learning

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow men. True nobility lies in being superior to your former self."

You spend the first years of a child's life teaching it to walk and talk, then you spend the rest of its life telling it to shut up and sit down.

Razón de Estado

There is no horror, no cruelty, sacrilege, or perjury, no imposture, no infamous transaction, no cynical robbery, no bold plunder or shabby betrayal that has not been or is not daily being perpetrated by the representatives of the states, under no other pretext than those elastic words, so convenient and yet so terrible: "for reasons of state."
-- Mikhail Bakunin
