Quote #14 on Political Struggle Quotes >> State and The Law
“...we find ourselves unable to advance because of laws. Laws, stupid laws, worn out and obsolete, useless to humanity, in fact a powerful detrimant. Yet we say laws are the creation of men. Let us change them then to suit modern times and progress. What folly to adhere so stubbornly to old and obsolete dogmas that were a creation of a preceeding generation. We might as well object to modern railways because the stage coach was used by our grandparents.”
