    “The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    “Any committee that is the slightest use is composed of people who are too busy to want to sit on it for a second longer than they have to.”
    —Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
