It is known that the best nations have always been those which concede the greatest amount of liberty to women.

Civilization is a social plague on the planet, and vices are just as necessary to it as is a virus to disease.

Who is wiser: the man who plants flowers along life's way or the man who makes it bristle with thorns?

The Civilized… murder their children by producing too many of them without being able to provide for their well-being. Morality or theories of false virtue stimulate them to manufacture cannon fodder, anthills of conscripts who are forced to sell themselves out of poverty. This improvident paternity is a false virtue, the selfishness of pleasure.

We must, then, apply the principle of Doubt to Civilization; we must doubt its necessity, its excellence, and its permanence.

Certainly in each social period, youth must be made to venerate the dominant absurdities.
