Quote #4 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Revolution and The State
“From its very inception, Anarchism and its greatest teachers have maintained that it is not the abuse of power which corrupts everybody, the best more often than the worst men, but that it is the thing itself, namely power, which is evil and which takes the very spirit and revolutionary fighting strength out of everybody who wields power.”
