Quote #11 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Anarchism and Bottom-Up Organization

“When a man refused to obey an order you did not immediately get him punished; you first appealed to him in the name of comradeship. Cynical people with no experience of handling men will say instantly that this would never ‘work’, but as a matter of fact it does ‘work’ in the long run.”
