Quote #16 on Political Struggle Quotes >> State and Obedience
“What do your laws amount to if no one obeys them? What your orders, if nobody lets himself be ordered? The state cannot forbear the claim to determine the individual's will, to speculate and count on this. For the state it is indispensable that nobody have an own will; if one had, the state would have to exclude (lock up, banish, etc.) this one; if all had, they would do away with the state. The state is not thinkable without lordship and servitude; for the state must will to be the lord of all that it embraces, and this will is called the "will of the state."”
Source: "The Ego and Its Own," by Max Stirner, 1845, publish date of 1844. Part 2, Chapter II, Section 1.
