  1. Bookchin quotes.......

    “Capitalism is a social cancer. It has always been a social cancer. It is the disease of society. It is the malignancy of society.”

    “If we do not do the impossible, we shall be faced with the unthinkable.”

    “The assumption that what currently exists must necessarily exist is the acid that corrodes all visionary thinking.”

  2. actually, bookchin was quoting petra kelly on that “if we don’t do the impossible...” line, though i don’t believe he refered to her by name.

    here’s another nice quote from the same book:

    “...we cannot remove our bonds unless we know them. However unconscious its influence may be, a legacy of domination permeates our thinking, values, emotions, indeed our very musculature. History dominates us all the more when we are ignorant of it. The historic unconscious must be made conscious.”
