Goldman

Famous quotes containing the word goldman:

    Religion! How it dominates man’s mind, how it humiliates and degrades his soul. God is everything, man is nothing, says religion.

    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    The government will ... go on in the highly democratic method of conscripting American manhood for European slaughter.
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    ... if the production of any commodity necessitates the sacrifice of human life, society should do without that commodity, but it can not do without that life.
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
