Philosophy



When there is freedom from mechanical conditioning, there is
simplicity. The classical man is just a bundle of routine, ideas and
tradition. If you follow the classical pattern, you are understanding
the routine, the tradition, the shadow — you are not understanding
yourself.

will eventually be won. … Blind faith in established experience has
been shattered, outmoded regulations have been smashed.

"Man's inhumanity to man" is not the last word. The truth lies deeper.

converted mankind into wolves and sheep.
 --Alexander Berkman






Nobody but radicals have ever accomplished anything in a great crisis.

Ideas, unlike solid structures, do not perish. They remain immortal,
immaterial and everywhere, like all Divine things. Ideas are a golden,
savage landscape that we wander unaware, without a map. Be careful: in
the last analysis, reality may be exactly what we think it is.
