Text Quotes
War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood. It degrades and stupefies with the sense that you are not responsible, that ‘tis not yours to think and reason why, but to do and die,’ like the hundred thousand others doomed like yourself. War means blind obedience, unthinking stupidity, brutish callousness, wanton destruction, and irresponsible murder  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) When the highwayman holds his gun to your head, you turn your valuables over to him. You ‘consent’ alright, but you do so because you cannot help yourself, because you are compelled by his gun. Are you not compelled to work for an employer? Your need compels you, just as the highwayman’s gun  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) Anarchism means voluntary co-operation instead of forced participation. It means harmony and order in place of interference and disorder  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) Violence is the method of ignorance, the weapon of the weak. The strong of heart and brain need no violence, for they are irresistible in their consciousness of being right.  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) War means blind obedience, unthinking stupidity, brutish callousness, wanton destruction, and irresponsible murder  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) The cure for evil and disorder is more liberty, not suppression  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) Inhumanity is the keynote of stupidity in power  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) Man’s inhumanity to man is not the last word. The truth lies deeper. It is economic slavery, the savage struggle for a crumb, that has converted mankind into wolves and sheep  (Alexander Berkman Quotes) Certainly the worker has nothing to lose by a change from government and capitalism to a condition of no government, of anarchy  (Alexander Berkman Quotes)
