Mikhail Bakunin Quote

The state is an immense cemetery where all manifestations of individual life go to be buried.

If society had not been invented, man would have continued to be a wild beast, or, what amounts to the same thing, a saint.

In even the purest democracies, such as the United States and Switzerland, a privileged minority holds power over the enslaved majority.

Uniformity is death; diversity is life.

Powerful states can only be sustained by crime. Small states are virtuous only because they are weak.

The state is a historically temporary mechanism, a transitory form of society.
