"True liberty cannot exist apart from the full rights of property,
for property is the only crystallized form of free faculties...
The whole meaning of socialism is a systematic glorification of force... 
No literary phrases about social organisms are potent enough to evaporate
the individual, who is the prime, indispensable, irreducible element." 
-- Auberon Herbert
(1838-1906) English author
