“The education we all receive from the State, at school and after, has so warped our minds that the very notion of freedom ends up by being lost, and disguised in servitude. It is a sad sight to see those who believe themselves to be revolutionaries unleashing their hatred on the anarchist just because his views on freedom go beyond their petty and narrow concepts of freedom learned in the State school.” MindBelieveEndsStatesSchoolLostViewsConceptsHatredSightNotionRevolutionaryPettyAnarchismAnarchistServitudeUnleashing Author:Peter Kropotkin

“Intelligence is an interesting word. It is also something which, in my opinion, is misunderstood by many people. There are those who believe that we go to school to become intelligent. Or, the more experience a person has on a particular job, the more intelligent they become. This notion is not so. All knowledge is one hundred percent evenly present in all places, at all times.

The more aware we become of this truth about intelligence, the better off we will be.” PeopleWantBelievePersonsSchoolJobsInterestingOpinionParticularPercentHundredIntelligentNotionAll TimeBetter OffMisunderstood Author:Bob Proctor
