Unreason is in the same relation to reason as dazzlement to the brightness of daylight itself.

Where there is power, there is resistance.

We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them.

It is meaningless to speak in the name of - or against - Reason, Truth, or Knowledge.
