More From Emma Goldman

We are entering a hyperconnected world where every boss now has more access, cheap access to cheap labor, cheap genius, cheap robot, cheap software, and then this world averages over. there is only one answer to that, and that is to get everyone as close as possible to some form of post-secondary education, it could be vocational, it can be liberal arts, it can be science and technology.

I do not prize the word cheap. it is not a word of inspiration. it is the badge of poverty, the signal of distress. cheap merchandise means cheap men and cheap men mean a cheap country.

Why is it so much easier to talk to a stranger? why do we feel we need to disconnect in order to connect? if i wrote "dear sofia" or "dear boomer" or "dear lily's great-aunt" at the top of this postcard, wouldn't that change the words that followed? of course it would. but the question is: when i wrote "dear lily," was that just a version of "dear myself"? i know it was more than that. but it was also less than that, too

I cannot always sympathize with that demand which we hear so frequently for cheap things. things may be too cheap. they are too cheap when the man or woman who produces them upon the farm or the man or woman who produces them in the factory does not get out of them living wages with a margin for old age and for a dowry for the incidents that are to follow. i pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the man or woman who produces the cloth or shapes it into a garment will starve in the process.

Totalitarianism extends to whatever touches it...psychological technique, as it operates in the army or in a great industrial plant, entails a direct action on the family. it involves a psychological adaptation of family life to military or industrial methods, supervision of family life, and training family life for military or industrial service. technique can leave nothing untouched in a civilization. everything is its concern. technique, which is destroying all other civilizations, is more than a simple mechanism: it's a whole civilization in itself.

We can't discount how scary and shaken not just the turkish government is, but turkish society is. imagine if you had some rump group of military officials here in the united states who started flying off with f-16s or other artillery and were taking shots at government buildings, and people were killed and injured. people would be scared and rightfully so.

In the 2000 election, george w. bush, who had shirked military service, succeeded in presenting himself as more reliable on national security than al gore.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. we must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. we should take nothing for granted. only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.
