Rather than be too transparent, I decided that instead of providing some "Anarchy for Dummies" type synopsis of what I think anarchy is by definition and in theory I would find some quotes and lead any readers in the right direction to find out more..... So in this post you will find said quotes and I have added a blog that I am "following" that is more of an "applied anarchy" place to go. The blogger has made the comment that this year in Greece it was their Christmas tree at the city center in flames, next year it will be Rockefellar Center in NYC. I aim to be simply theoretical, not out of fear or anything of the sort....just because. Much of what I read in connection with anarchy as a movement is confusing to me, so I like to keep it simple-theories and news following is what I plan to contribute. If you feel that you need a "how to guide" I'll search out those blogs and sites, as well. I will leave it now with a quote my friend in Athens passed along to me, maybe it was his, maybe not--but it probably is because he's a smart guy :)
"Chaos is Civilization Taking a Rest" JA
“Anarchism, really stands for the liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion; the liberation of the human body from the dominion of property; liberation from the shackles and restraint of government.”
Emma Goldman
“Our government teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.”
Louis D. Brandeis
“Anarchy is the sure consequence of tyranny; or no power that is not limited by laws can ever be protected by them”
John Milton
