Hate Does Not Produce Love, And By

Anarchism Is The Abolition Of Exploitation And Oppression Of Man By Man, That Is, The Abolition Of Private Property And Government; Anarchism Is The Destruction Of Misery, Of Superstitions, Of Hatred. Therefore, Every Blow Given To The Institutions Of Private Property And To The Government, Every Exaltation Of The Conscience Of Man, Every Disruption Of The Present Conditions, Every Lie Unmasked, Every Part Of Human Activity Taken Away From The Control Of The Authorities, Every Augmentation Of The Spirit Of Solidarity And Initiative, Is A Step Towards Anarchism.

Organisation, Far From Creating Authority, Is The Only Cure For It And The Only Means Whereby Each Of Us Will Get Used To Taking An Active And Conscious Part In Collective Work, And Cease Being Passive Instruments In The Hands Of Leaders.

For Anarchy To Succeed Or Simply To Advance Towards Its Success It Must Be Conceived Not Only As A Lighthouse Which Illuminates And Attracts, But As Something Possible And Attainable, Not In Centuries To Come, But In A Relatively Short Time And Without Relying On Miracles.

And By Anarchist Spirit I Mean That Deeply Human Sentiment, Which Aims At The Good Of All, Freedom And Justice For All, Solidarity And Love Among The People; Which Is Not An Exclusive Characteristic Only Of Self-declared Anarchists, But Inspires All People Who Have A Generous Heart And An Open Mind.

Intolerance Of Oppression, The Desire To Be Free And Develop One Personality To Its Full Limits, Is Not Enough To Make One An Anarchist. That Aspiration Towards Unlimited Freedom, If Not Tempered By A Love For Mankind And By The Desire That All Should Enjoy Equal Freedom, May Well Create Rebels Who Soon Become Exploiters And Tyrants.
