No legal plunder: This is the principle of justice.

When plunder becomes a way of life, men create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.

The state is the great fictitious entity by which everyone seeks to live at the expense of everyone else.

Everyone wants to live at the expense of the state. They forget that the state wants to live at the expense of everyone.

If philanthropy is not voluntary, it destroys liberty and justice. The law can give nothing that has not first been taken from its owner.

When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law.

The worst thing that can happen to a good cause is not to be skillfully attacked, but to be ineptly defended.

There are people who think that plunder loses all its immorality as soon as it becomes legal. Personally, I cannot imagine a more alarming situation.

In short, is not liberty the freedom of every person to make full use of his faculties, so long as he does not harm other persons while doing so?

The ability to think for one's self depends upon one's mastery of the language.

In the face of the obscene, explicit malice of the jungle, which lacks only dinosaurs as punctuation, I feel like a half-finished, poorly expressed sentence in a cheap novel.

What if this were Hell, this absence of sleep, this poet's desert, this pain of living, this dying of not dying, this anguish of shadows, this passion over death and light.

Im a techno moron. I need help just to plug in my video camera.

An echo of music, a face in the street, the wafer of the new moon, a wanton thought - only in the iridescence of things the vagabond soul is happy.

The Republicans, they are in the danger of rooting for the country to fail. They look bad that way, I mean, and I want to say to them, cheer up, Republicans. Eventually, things will get worse.

But emotion cannot be buried by words, though it can be aroused by them.

As every artist who has used the method knows - photography's a loyal slave and a tyrannical master.

Great men should drink with harness on their throats.
