Todor Bombov
“The dream of all peoples—a world without weapons, a world without wars—despite any initiatives, no matter whether they are strategic or not, is only a utopia within the contemporary content of the State. Nowadays, the State is the biggest, the most powerful criminal organization of continuous robbery of social labor. The State is a mafia today, in which the basic principle is the “law” omertá—“who’s not mum, is dead!” Now the State is the final phase of the organized criminality. It is “a conspiracy of the rich” (Thomas More), where because of the judicial astrology, “in every situation, powerful rogues know how to save themselves at the expense of the feeble” (Jean-Jacque Rousseau). Until now, the class society represents a power of one family that divided for itself the state as private property!”
Todor Bombov, Socialism Is Dead! Long Live Socialism!: The Marx Code-Socialism with a Human Face

“Deciding to wait, Scott sat down with a pint away from the bar at a corner table and lit a cigarette. The clientele in there on Sunday afternoon were the same as most other afternoons. From middle-aged to old men, drinking and cursing at the world like it was the last bus which had just left the stop without them.”
R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree

John Grogan
“Infine (sì, di nuovo un'ultima volta) devo ringraziare quel rompiscatole del mio amico a quattro zampe, senza il quale non ci sarebbe questo libro. Sarebbe felice di sapere che il suo debito per tutti i materassi strappati, le pareti sventrate e gli oggetti di valore inghiottiti è stato adesso pienamente saldato.”
John Grogan, Io & Marley

Marissa Meyer
“WE WERE ALL VILLAINS in the beginning.”
Marissa Meyer, Renegades

Thomas Paine
“To bring the matter to one point, Is the power who is jealous of our prosperity, a proper power to govern us? Whoever says, No, to this question, is an independent, for independency means no more than this, whether we shall make our own law, or, whether the king, the greatest enemy which this continent hath, or can have, shall tell us there shall be no laws but such as I like.”
Thomas Paine, Common Sense
