Quote #33 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Anarchism and Social Organization
“"But," it is usually asked, "What will there be instead of Governments?"
There will be nothing. Something that has long been useless, and therefore superfluous and bad, will be abolished. An organ that, being unnecessary, has become harmful, will be abolished.”
Source: "Patriotism and Government," by Leo Tolstoy, May 10, o.s., 1900. Part 8.
