“Ideology follows the money."

"Governments don't protect people, people protect governments."

"To accept the legitimacy of the state is to embrace the necessity for war.”
Lawrence Samuels

“Governments don't protect people, people protect governments."

"Order is organic, it can’t just be ordered up."

"The more complexity, the more unpredictability and therefore the more uncontrollability. You cannot control what you cannot predict.”
Lawrence Samuels

“Government succeeds by failing.”
L.K. Samuels

“Governments don't protect people, people protect governments."

"Order is organic, it can’t just be ordered up."

"The more complexity, the more unpredictability and therefore the more uncontrollability. You cannot control what you cannot predict.”
Lawrence Samuels

“Government in and of itself is the foremost agent for destroying order and imposing chaos."

"To accept the legitimacy of the state is to embrace the necessity for war."

"Political theory would be fine in a perfect world, but in an uncertain one, it is a dangerous gamble.”
L.K. Samuels, In Defense of Chaos

“The truth will always be innately painful,… Like dry, crusty bread, it can be hard to swallow. But mankind has an affinity for evil. ’Tis a distemper that burrows deep under the skin like an abscess. We all wish to make slaves of others: one man over another, one clan over another, one kingdom over another. Never ending, never ceasing. A world of battle to conquer one’s fellow man before he conquers you.”
L. K. Samuels, Ferret: The Reluctant King
