More From Peter Kropotkin

There is, on the whole, nothing on earth intended for innocent people so horrible as a school. to begin with, it is a prison. but in some respects more cruel than a prison. in a prison, for instance, you are not forced to read books written by the warders and the governor. . . .in the prison you are not forced to sit listening to turnkeys discoursing without charm or interest on subjects that they don't understand and don't care about, and therefore incapable of making you understand or care about. in a prison they may torture your body; but they do not torture your brains.

Political agitation, by the passions it arouses or the convictions it engenders, may in fact stimulate men to the violation of the law. detestation of existing policies is easily transformed into forcible resistance of the authority which puts them in execution, and it would be folly to disregard the causal relation between the two. yet to assimilate agitation, legitimate as such, with direct incitement to violent resistance, is to disregard the tolerance of all methods of political agitation which in normal times is a safeguard of free government.

As it happened, i didn't grow up to be the kind of woman who is the heroine in a western, and although the men i have known have had many virtues and have taken me to live in many places i have come to love, they have never been john wayne, and they have never taken me to the bend in the river where the cottonwoods grow. deep in that part of my heart where artificial rain forever falls, that is still the line i want to hear.

A child free from the guilt of ownership and the burden of economic competition will grow up with the will to do what needs doing and the capacity for joy in doing it. it is useless work that darkens the heart. the delight of the nursing mother, of the scholar, of the successful hunter, of the good cook, of the skilful maker, of anyone doing needed work and doing it well, - this durable joy is perhaps the deepest source of human affection and of sociality as a whole.
