The Mutual-aid Tendency In Man Has So

The Immense And Ever Increasing Sums Which The State Wrings From The People Are Never Enough For It; It Mortgages The Income Of Future Generations, And Steers Resolutely Toward Bankruptcy.

When We Have But The Will To Do It, That Very Moment Will Justice Be Done: That Very Instant The Tyrants Of The Earth Shall Bite The Dust.

But Times And Tempers Are Changed. Rebels Are Everywhere To Be Found Who No Longer Wish To Obey The Law Without Knowing Whence It Comes, What Are Its Uses, And Whither Arises The Obligation To Submit To It, And The Reverence With Which It Is Encompassed. The Rebels Of Our Day Are Criticizing The Very Foundations Of Society Which Have Hitherto Been Held Sacred, And First And Foremost Amongst Them That Fetish, Law.

There Are Those, On The One Hand, Who Hope To Achieve The Social Revolution Through The State By Preserving And Even Extending Most Of Its Powers To Be Used For The Revolution. And There Are Those Like Ourselves Who See The State, Both In Its Present Form, In Its Very Essence, And In Whatever Guise It Might Appear, An Obstacle To The Social Revolution, The Greatest Hindrance To The Birth Of A Society Based On Equality And Liberty, As Well As The Historic Means Designed To Prevent This Blossoming.

Lenin Is Not Comparable To Any Revolutionary Figure In History. Revolutionaries Have Had Ideals. Lenin Has None.
