The passion for destruction is a creative passion, too! - Mikhail Bakunin

What predominates in Italy is that destitute proletariat to which Marx and Engels, and, following them, the whole school of German social democrats, refer with the utmost contempt. They do so completely in vain, because here, and here alone, not in the bourgeois stratum of workers, is to be found the mind as well as the might of the future social revolution.

Amar é querer a liberdade, a completa independência do outro, o primeiro ato do verdadeiro amor, é a emancipação completa do objeto que se ama; não se pode verdadeiramente amar senão a um ser perfeitamente livre, independente não somente de todos os outros, mas mesmo e sobretudo daquele pelo qual é amado e que ele próprio ama.

To be free ... means to be acknowledged and treated as such by all his fellowmen. The liberty of every individual is only the reflection of his own humanity, or his human right through the conscience of all free men, his brothers and his equals. (...) I am not myself free or human until or unless I recognize the freedom and humanity of all my fellowmen.
