“If loyalty is, and always has been, perceived as obsolete, why do we continue to praise it? Because loyalty is essential to the most basic things that make life livable. Without loyalty there can be no love. Without loyalty there can be no family. Without loyalty there can be no friendship. Without loyalty there can be no commitment to community or country. And without those things, there can be no society.” IfsHas BeensCountryCommunityEssentialsCommitmentPraiseLoyaltyObsoleteNo LoveBasic ThingsNo Commitment Book:Loyalty: The Vexing Virtue Source: Loyalty: The Vexing Virtue
“The burden of all song and praise "unto the Highest" has been that God stands for justice and mercy. Yet injustice among men is ever on the increase; the outrages committed against the masses in this country alone would seem enough to overflow the very heavens. But where are the gods to make an end to all these horrors, these wrongs, this inhumanity to man? No, not the gods, but MAN must rise in his mighty wrath. He, deceived by all the deities, betrayed by their emissaries, he, himself, must undertake to usher in justice upon the earth.” MenHas BeensEndsCountryEnoughSeemsEarthSongHeavenJusticeHorrorHighestMassMercyIncreasePraiseInjusticeCommittedBurdenPositive AtheismBetrayedWrathDeceivedDeitiesOutrageInhumanityOverflowJustice And MercyInhumanity To Man Book:Red Emma Speaks: An Emma Goldman Reader Source: Red Emma Speaks: An Emma Goldman Reader
