Benjamin Disraeli
“I have sometimes half believed, although the suspicion is mortifying, that there is only one step between his state who deeply indulges in imaginative meditation, and insanity.”
Benjamin Disraeli, Contarini Fleming; A Psychological Romance and the Rise of Iskander

Mikhail Bakunin
“We are convinced that liberty without socialism is privilege, injustice; and that socialism without liberty is slavery and brutality.”
Mikhail Bakunin

Rudolf Virchow
“Medicine is a social science, and politics is nothing more than medicine on a large scale.”
Rudolf Virchow

Oscar Wilde
“With the abolition of private property, then, we shall have true, beautiful, healthy Individualism. Nobody will waste his life in accumulating things, and the symbols of things. One will live. To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism

Benedict Anderson
“It is nice that what eventually became the late British Empire has not been ruled by an 'English' dynasty since the early eleventh century: since then a motley parade of Normans (Plantagenets), Welsh (Tudors), Scots (Stuarts), Dutch (House of Orange) and Germans (Hanoverians) have squatted on the imperial throne. No one much cared until the philological revolution and a paroxysm of English nationalism in World War I. House of Windsor rhymes with House of Schönbrunn or House of Versailes.”
Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism
