Individual liberty may be unable to solve every social problem, but collective violence is unable to solve any social problem.

To eliminate statism is not to physically subdue the rulers, but to mentally liberate the ruled.

Abolitionism was a movement to end private slavery. Libertarianism is a movement to end private and public slavery.

The goal of libertarianism is not to permit people to be free, but to make them realize that they don't need anyone's permission to be free.

A libertarian is someone who graduated from thinking that there are problems with the state to realizing that the state is the problem.

Perhaps the most flagrant testimony to the intellectual shallowness of statism is that the typical statist believes that the fantastically hypothetical threat of a corporation monopolizing the supply of water is a devastating objection to libertarianism, but the painfully real threat of a state methodically exterminating tens of millions of individuals is not a devastating objection to statism.

Anarcho-capitalism is to “minimal statism” what a cure is to a painkiller.
