Lack of fairness to an opponent is essentially a sign of weakness.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

statutory regulations, legisla...

statutory regulations, legislative enactments, constitutional provisions, are invasive. They never yet induced man to do anything he could and would not do by virtue of his intellect or temperament, nor prevented anything that man was impelled to do by the same dictates.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

Peace or harmony between the s...

Peace or harmony between the sexes and individuals does not necessarily depend on a superficial equalization of human beings; nor does it call for the elimination of individual traits and peculiarities. The problem that confronts us today, and which the nearest future is to solve, is how to be one's self and yet in oneness with others, to feel deeply with all human beings and still retain one's own characteristic qualities.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

The State has no more existenc...

The State has no more existence than gods and devils have. They are equally the reflex and creation of man, for man, the individual, is the only reality. The State is but the shadow of man, the shadow of his opaqueness, of his ignorance and fear.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

The State is a term for the legislative and administrative machinery whereby certain business of the people is transacted, and badly so.

There is no such thing as a good government. There never was. There can't be.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

The State, every government wh...

The State, every government whatever its form, character or color - be it absolute or constitutional, monarchy or republic, Fascist, Nazi or bolshevik - is by its very nature conservative, static, intolerant of change and opposed to it.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

all government, whatever its forms or pretenses, is a dead weight that paralyzes the free spirit and activities of the masses.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

I believe - indeed, I know - that whatever is fine and beautiful in the human expresses and asserts itself in spite of government, and not because of it.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

Jealousy is the very reverse o...

Jealousy is the very reverse of understanding, of sympathy, and of generous feeling. Never has jealousy added to character, never does it make the individual big and fine.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

Never can a new idea move with...

Never can a new idea move within the law. It matters not whether that idea pertains to political and social changes or to any other domain of human thought and expression - to science, literature, music; in fact, everything that makes for freedom and joy and beauty must refuse to move within the law. How can it be otherwise? The law is stationary, fixed, mechanical, 'a chariot wheel' which grinds all alike without regard to time, place and condition, without ever taking into account cause and effect, without ever going

Marriage is primarily an economic arrangement, an insurance pact. It differs from the ordinary life insurance agreement only in that it is more binding, more exacting.

readiness,' far far from assuring peace, has at all times and in all countries been instrumental in precipitating armed conflicts.

the function of militarism is to kill. It cannot live except through murder.

Militarism consumes the strongest and most productive elements of each nation. Militarism swallows the largest part of the national revenue.

Emma Goldman 342 quotes

You cannot build up a standing army and then throw it back into a box like tin soldiers. Armies equipped to the teeth with weapons, with highly developed instruments of murder and backed by their military interests, have their own dynamic functions.

so few people realize that preparedness never leads to peace, but that it is indeed the road to universal slaughter.

The pathos of it all is that the America which is to be protected by a huge military force is not the America of the people, but that of the privileged class ...

religion and morality are a much better whip to keep people in submission than even the club and the gun.
