"Anarchism: The philosophy of a new social order based on liberty
unrestricted by man-made law; the theory that all forms of
government rest on violence, and are therefore wrong and harmful,
as well as unnecessary."

from the dominion of religion; the liberation of the human body
from the dominion of property; liberation from the shackles and
restraints of government."
