“See, people with power understand exactly one thing: violence.”

“Comrade, Repression exposes. By drawing violence from the beast, the vanguard party is demonstrating for the world to examine just exactly what terms their rule is predicated on— their power to organize violence, our acquiescence.”

“My top priority is for people to understand that they have the power to change things themselves.”

“The less freedom people have the more violence, the more freedom the less violence. I put this here as the Power Principle: power kills, absolute power kills absolutely.”

“My mission is to see things as they are. Exactly the contrary of a mission.”

“Power and violence are opposites; where the one rules absolutely, the other is absent. Violence appears where power is in jeopardy, but left to its own course it ends in power's disappearance.”

“People see only their good deeds saying, "I have done this good deed." But they do not see their evil deeds saying, "I have done this evil deed" or "This is called evil." But this (tendency) is difficult to see. One should think like this: "It is these things that lead to evil, to violence, to cruelty, anger, pride and jealousy. Let me not ruin myself with these things."”

“Evil people naturally assume that you will use that power exactly as they would use it.”

“I think that the point is that people rarely understand that nothing is ever exactly what you think it will be.”

“The power of a thing or an act is in the meaning and the understanding.”
