Society is produced by our wants and government by our wickedness….government in its best state is a necessary evil; in its worse state an intolerable one.
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
The worship of the state is the worship of force. There is no more dangerous menace to civilization than a government of incompetent, corrupt, or vile men. The worst evils which mankind ever had to endure were inflicted by governments.
Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.
Every kind and degree of evil of which mankind are susceptible may be inflicted on them by their government.
Unfortunately our nation, nay, our world, is run by evil morons.
Government is essentially immoral. The State employs evil weapons to subjugate evil, and is alike contaminated by the objects with which it deals, and the means by which it works.
