This Excessive Licence, Which The Anarchists Think

Nothing Is More Unreliable Than The Populace, Nothing More Obscure Than Human Intentions, Nothing More Deceptive Than The Whole Electoral System.

Now In Regard To Trades And Other Means Of Livelihood, Which Ones Are To Be Considered Becoming To A Gentleman And Which Ones Are Vulgar, We Have Been Taught, In General, As Follows. First, Those Means Of Livelihood Are Rejected As Undesirable Which Incur People's Ill-will, As Those Of Tax-gatherers And Usurers. Unbecoming To A Gentleman, Too, And Vulgar Are The Means Of Livelihood Of All Hired Workmen Whom We Pay For Mere Manual Labour, Not For Artistic Skill; For In Their Case The Very Wage They Receive Is A Pledge Of Their Slavery.

The Rabble Estimate Few Things According To Their Real Value, Most Things According To Their Prejudices.

What Is So Beneficial To The People As Liberty, Which We See Not Only To Be Greedily Sought After By Men, But Also By Beasts, And To Be Prepared In All Things.

I Am Never Less Alone Than When Alone.
