More From Immanuel Kant

Friedrich engels once said: "bourgeois society stands at the crossroads, either transition to socialism or regression into barbarism." what does "regression into barbarism" mean to our lofty european civilization? until now, we have all probably read and repeated these words thoughtlessly, without suspecting their fearsome seriousness. a look around us at this moment shows what the regression of bourgeois society into barbarism means. this world war is a regression into barbarism. the triumph of imperialism leads to the annihilation of civilization.
War Mean Civilization
A majority held in restraint by constitutional checks and limitations, and always changing easily with deliberate changes of popular opinions and sentiments, is the only true sovereign of a free people. whoever rejects it does of necessity fly to anarchy or to despotism. unanimity is impossible. the rule of a minority, as a permanent arrangement, is wholly inadmissible; so that, rejecting the majority principle, anarchy or despotism in some form is all that is left.
People Majority Principles
You may ask what kind of a republic i dream of. let me reply: i dream of a republic independent, free, and democratic, of a republic economically prosperous and yet socially just; in short, of a humane republic which serves the individual and which therefore holds the hope that the individual will serve it in turn. of a republic of well-rounded people, because without such it is impossible to solve any of our problems, human, economic, ecological, social, or political.
Dream Independent People
Lawlessness is lawlessness. anarchy is anarchy is anarchy. neither race nor color nor frustration is an excuse for either lawlessness or anarchy.
Frustration Race Color
A free culture is not a culture without property; it is not a culture in which artists don't get paid. a culture without property, or in which creators can't get paid, is anarchy, not freedom. anarchy is not what i advance here. instead, the free culture that i defend in this book is a balance between anarchy and control.
Book Artist Balance
There are different forms of anarchy and different currents in it. i must, first say very simply what anarchy i have in view. by anarchy i mean first an absolute rejection of violence.

That's a rather flippant quote "drinking and writing bad poetry" from me. i mean, i said it, but i was doing other stuff too. i certainly didn't manage the full stretch of four years.

It was very clear to me in 1965, in mississippi, that, as a lawyer, i could get people into schools, desegregate the schools, but if they were kicked off the plantations - and if they didn't have food, didn't have jobs, didn't have health care, didn't have the means to exercise those civil rights, we were not going to have success.
Jobs School Mean
Legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property... another means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they rise. whenever there is in any country, uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right.
Country Mean Law
Control of space means control of the world.
Future Mean Space
