Zitate[edit]

  • "In the Soviet Union, government controls industry. In the United States, industry controls government. That is the principal structural difference between the two great oligarchies of our time."
  • "Anarchism is not a romantic fable but the hardheaded realization, based on five thousand years of experience, that we cannot entrust the management of our lives to kings, priests, politicians, generals, and county commissioners."
  • "The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other—instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals."
  • "Society is like a stew. If you don't stir it up every once in a while then a layer of scum floats to the top."
