Quote #10 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Criminal Culture and Freedom
“The state's behavior is violence, and it calls its violence "law"; that of the individual, "crime." Crime, then -- so the individual's violence is called; and only by crime does he overcome the state's violence when he thinks that the state is not above him, but he is above the state.”
