Only when one understands that she or he is part of a revolutionary movement to restructure society, even if it only wins immediate gains in the early stages, can the talk of functional "unity" be given any credence whatsoever. -- Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervinhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
The Ottoman Empire was an ugly affair, but they had the right idea. The rulers in Turkey were fortunately so corrupt that they left people alone pretty much -- were mostly interested in robbing them -- and they left them alone to run their own affairs, and their own regions and their own communities with a lot of local self determination. -- Noam Chomskyhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. -- Frederick Douglasshttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
Louis Blanc has gone so far as to reverse the republic motto, as if he wanted to revolutionize the revolution. He no longer says, as everybody else says, and according to tradition, Liberty, Equality, Fraternity; he says Equality, Fraternity, Liberty! -- Pierre-Joseph Proudhonhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
Rest in peace, poor Mata! Someone who never knew you has sworn to avenge you. And the memory of your blood-drenched eyes will drive his dagger; the vision of your mutilated body will render his bomb more effective. -- Bruno Filippihttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
Nothing wrong with communist anarchism as long as it remains voluntary. Any one that wants to go make a commune, go ahead, do it. I got nothing against it. As long as there's room to the individualist to do his or her own thing. -- Robert Anton Wilsonhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
Instead of entrusting the defence of your interests to others, see to the matter by yourselves. Instead of trying to choose advisers that will guide you in future actions, do the thing yourselves, and do it now! Men of good will shall not have to look long in vain for the opportunity. To put on others' shoulders the responsibility of one's actions is cowardice. -- Elisee Reclushttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged. -- Noam Chomskyhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism

After all, it means thirteen dollars per month, three meals a day, and a place to sleep. Yet even necessity is not sufficiently strong a factor to bring into the army an element of character and manhood. -- Emma Goldmanhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
I am not appreciated in this society. I have the right to live, and while your imbecilic criminal society tries to stop me, well too bad for it, too bad for you! -- Jules Bonnothttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
If the federal government had access to every email you've ever written and every phone call you've ever made, it's almost certain that they could find something you've done which violates a provision in the 27,000 pages of federal statues or 10,000 administrative regulations. You probably do have something to hide, you just don't know it yet. -- Moxie Marlinspikehttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
All that marching music doesn't concern me. -- Georges Brassenshttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
We can't do anything to change the world until capitalism crumbles. In the meantime we should all go shopping to console ourselves. -- Banksyhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
Of course it's extremely easy to say, "The heck with it. I'm just going to adapt myself to the structures of power and authority and do the best I can within them." Sure, you can do that. But that's not acting like a decent person. -- Noam Chomskyhttps://todon.eu/tags/anarchism
