More on Politics
“The state lies in all languages of good and evil; and whatever it says, it lies-and whatever it has, it has stolen.”
“Lenin was sent into Russia by the Germans in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city, and it worked with amazing accuracy.”
“Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.”
More on Violence
“Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends by defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.”
“Destruction, violence, ravages, murder, are perpetrated by statute law.”
“Man was born into barbarism when killing his fellow man was a normal condition of existence. He became endowed with a conscience.And he has now reached the day when violence toward another human being must become as abhorrent as eating another's flesh.”
