Sections (Content) :
• 1
I am a passionate seeker for truth and just as strong an opponent of the corrupting lies, through which the party of order -- this privileged, official, and interested representative of all religions, philosophical political, legal economical, and social outrage in the past and present -- has tried to keep the world in ignorance.
• 2
We will not stop to analyze the history of religious, theological, and metaphysical nonsense, nor speak about the ever occurring godly incarnations and visions which have happened during centuries of human ignorance. Everyone knows that these superstitions occasioned terrible suffering, and their progress was accompanied by rivers of blood and much mourning.
• 3
Even if the priests, prophets, aristocrats, and bourgeois of all times were honest believers, in spite of all, they were parasites. One cannot suppose that they believed every bit of nonsense in religion and politics which they taught the masses.
• 4
I am an impassioned seeker of the truth, and as bitter an enemy of the vicious fictions used by the established order -- an order which has profited from all the religious, metaphysical, political, juridical, economic, and social infamies of all times -- to brutalize and enthralled the world.
• 5
The accomplished scholar is not a tool.
• 6
Man's greatest battles have been waged against man-made obstacles and artificial handicaps imposed upon him to paralyze his growth and development. Human thought has always been falsified by tradition and custom, and perverted false education in the interests of those who held power and enjoyed privileges.
• 7
...revolutions do not allow anyone to play the schoolmaster with them.
• 8
...the philosopher, as a man INDISPENSABLE for the morrow and the day after the morrow, has ever found himself, and HAS BEEN OBLIGED to find himself, in contradiction to the day in which he lives; his enemy has always been the ideal of his day.
• 9
I have often marveled at the reckless way in which those who would combat new and unfamiliar notions step forth to the encounter, unprovided with intellectual safeguards, and trusting wholly to certain ancient generic fallacies, which, if we may judge from their appearance in all ages and climates, are indigenous in the human mind.
• 10
At the end of life you can say "I have not been dominated by the Dominant Ideas of my Age; I have chosen mine own allegiance and served it. I have proved by a lifetime that there is that in woman which saves her from the absolute tyranny of Circumstance, which in the end conquers and remolds Circumstance, the immortal fire of Idealism which is the salvation of the Future."
• 11
Appeal to the people, and brutalized as they are, they listen and half open their eyes. They partly throw off the most humiliating yoke that has ever been borne. They rid themselves of some of their errors, and win back a part of their freedom, that appanage or essence of man of which they had been robbed. We cannot cure the powerful ambition, but we can cure the people of superstition. We can, by speech and pen, make men more enlightened and better.
