“I went to a strict elementary school with nuns, and uniforms that I'm pretty sure were made out of sandpaper. It was an academic, sports-oriented place. I liked to read, and wanted to act, and didn't try out for volleyball. I was weird. The other girls would dip my hair in ink and stuff.” TryingMadeWantedSchoolGirlStuffSportsHairAcademicUniformsStrictInkVolleyballNunDipOther GirlElementary SchoolSandpaper Author:Zosia Mamet

“Anarcho-capitalism, in my opinion, is a doctrinal system which, if ever implemented, would lead to forms of tyranny and oppression that have few counterparts in human history. There isn't the slightest possibility that its (in my view, horrendous) ideas would be implemented, because they would quickly destroy any society that made this colossal error. The idea of 'free contract' between the potentate and his starving subject is a sick joke, perhaps worth some moments in an academic seminar exploring the consequences of (in my view, absurd) ideas, but nowhere else.” IfsHumansMadeIdeasMomentsWould BeFormViewsOpinionSubjectsPossibilityJokesCapitalismConsequenceSickErrorsTyrannyAbsurdOppressionContractsAcademicExploringHuman HistoryStarvingCounterpartsColossalSeminars Author:Noam Chomsky
