Friedrich Nietzsche
“Socialism itself can hope to exist only for brief periods here and there, and then only through the exercise of the extremest terrorism. For this reason it is secretly preparing itself for rule through fear and is driving the word “justice” into the heads of the half-educated masses like a nail so as to rob them of their reason… and to create in them a good conscience for the evil game they are to play.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits

Panait Istrati
“(on visiting the USSR after Stalin regime installed)
All right, I can see the broken eggs. Now where's this omelette of yours?”
Panait Istrati

Ludwig von Mises
“A society that chooses between capitalism and socialism does not choose between two social systems; it chooses between social cooperation and the disintegration of society.”
Ludwig von Mises

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“Someone that you have deprived of everything is no longer in your power. He is once again entirely free.”
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The First Circle

Friedrich A. Hayek
“Fascism is the stage reached after communism has proved an illusion.”
Friedrich von Hayek
