From the second chapter ("The declaration...): "In other words, the evil doesn’t reside in one form of government more than another. It’s in the governmental idea itself, it’s in the principle of authority.
In a word, our ideal is the substitution in human relations of a free contract, perpetually revisable and terminable, for administrative and legal guardianship, for imposed discipline.
The anarchists thus propose to teach the people to do without government the same way they are beginning to learn to do without God.
It will also learn to do without owners. The worst of tyrants, in fact, is not he who imprisons you; it’s he who starves you. It’s not he who grabs you by the collar; it’s he who grabs you by the belly."
