Anarchism, then, really stands for the liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion.
Emma GoldmanIdealists foolish enough to throw caution to the winds have advanced mankind and have enriched the world.
Emma GoldmanNora leaves her husband, not-as the stupid critic would have it-because she is tired of her responsibilities or feels the need of woman's rights, but because she has come to know that for eight years she had lived with a stranger and borne him children. Can there be anything more humiliating, more degrading than a life-long proximity between two strangers? No need for the woman to know anything of the man, save his income. As to the knowledge of the woman-what is there to know except that she has a pleasing appearance?
