Lawrence FerlinghettiI am waiting for the war to be fought which will make the world safe for anarchy
About This Quote
There is a fundamental disagreement between the anarchists and the government that is left unsolved. The anarchists believe in self-governance and self-sufficiency while the government believes in the primacy of the state and the rights of citizens to be ruled by it. If these two philosophies could be combined and placed on equal footing, then all problems would be solved. Unfortunately, this has yet to happen.
The world remains torn apart by state vs. anarchy debates.
