Friedrich Nietzsche
“Staat noem ik dat, waar allen gifdrinkers zijn, goeden en slechten, Staat, waar allen zichzelf verliezen, goeden en slechten. Staat, waar de langzame zelfmoord van allen 'het leven' heet.”
Friederich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Ergens ter wereld bestaan nog volken en kudden, doch niet bij ons, mijne broeders: hier vindt men staten.
Staat? Wat is dat? Wellaan! Zet nu de oren open, want thans zeg ik u mijn woord over de dood der volken. Staat beduidt het koudste van alle monsters. Koud is ook zijn leugen; en deze leugen kruipt hem uit de mond: 'Ik, de staat, ben het volk.”
Friederich Nietzsche
