Frank Herbert
“Jessica leaned beside him, thankful for the moment of rest. She heard Paul pulling at his stillsuit tube, sipped her own reclaimed water. It tasted brackish, and she remembered the waters of Caladan—a tall fountain enclosing a curve of sky, such a richness of moisture that it hadn't been noticed for itself... only for its shape, or its reflection, or its sound as she stopped beside it.

To stop , she thought. To rest... truly rest .

It occurred to her that mercy was the ability to stop, if only for a moment. There was no mercy where there could be no stopping.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Nestor Makhno
“Anarchism is an ideology which is too realistic not to comprehend the modern world and real events. The part taken by its practitioners in these events is based on a clear understanding of the goal to be attained and the means to be used to reach it...”
Nestor Makhno, My Visit to the Kremlin

Alasdair MacIntyre
“To treat someone else as an end [as opposed to a mean] is to offer them what I take to be good reasons for acting in one way rather than another, but to leave it to them to evaluate those reasons.”
Alasdair MacIntyre, After Virtue

Ivan Illich
“everywhere the school system has the same structure, and everywhere its hidden curriculum has the same effect. Invariably, it shapes the consumer who values institutional commodities above the nonprofessional ministration of a neighbor. Everywhere the hidden curriculum of schooling initiates the citizen to the myth that bureaucracies guided by scientific knowledge are efficient and benevolent.”
Ivan Illich, Deschooling Society

Ivan Illich
“The bourgeoisie who could afford to eliminate 'social death' by avoiding retirement, created 'childhood' to keep their young under control.”
Ivan Illich
