"Order derived through submission and maintained by terror is not much of a safe guaranty; yet that is the only "order" that governments have ever maintained. True social harmony grows naturally out of solidarity of interests. Ina society where those who always work never have anything, while those who never work enjoy everything, solidarity of interests is nonexistent; hence social harmony is but a myth...Thus the entire arsenal of government....laws, police, soldiers, the courts, legislatures, prisons....is strenuously engaged in "harmonizing" the most antagonistic elements in society."
Emma Goldman
