“يـاعاقد الـحاجبين على الجبين اللجين
إن كنت تقصد قتلى قـتلتني مـرتين
مـاذا يـريبك مني ومـاهممت بـشين
أصُـفرةٌ في جبينى أم رعشة في اليدين
تَـمر قـفز غزال ٍبين الرصيف وبيني
وما نصبت شباكي ولا أذنت لـعيني
تـبدو كأن لاتراني ومـلء عينك عيني
ومـثل فعلك فعلي ويلي من الأحمقين
مولاي لم تبق مني حـياً سوى رمقين
صبرت حتى براني وجدي وقرب حيني
ستحرم الشعر من وليس هـذا بهين
أخاف تدعوالقوافي عليك في المشرقين”
― بشارة الخوري

“Briefly, the State is that organization
in society which attempts to maintain a
monopoly of the use of force and violence in a given territorial area; in particular, it is the only
organization in society that obtains its revenue not by voluntary contribution or payment for
services rendered but by coercion.”
― murray rothbard

“It would be an instructive exercise for the skeptical reader to try to frame a definition of taxation which does not also include theft. Like the robber, the State demands money at the equivalent of gunpoint; if the taxpayer refuses to pay, his assets are seized by force, and if he should resist such depredation, he will be arrested or shot if he should continue to resist.”

“I would rather have a short life with width rather than a narrow one with length.”
