When we can't dream any longer we die.
Emma Goldman
The history of human growth is at the same time the history of every new idea heralding the approach of a brighter dawn and the brighter dawn has always been considered illegal outside of the law.
Emma Goldman
Man has bought brains but all the millions in the world have failed to buy love. Man has subdued bodies but all the power on earth has been unable to subdue love.

Thus love has the magic power to make of a beggar a king.
