Quote by Vladimir Lenin

When there is state there can be no freedom, but when there is freedom there will be no state.

When there is state there can be no freedom, but when there

Summary

This quote suggests that the existence of a state and freedom are inherently incompatible. It proposes that where a state exists, individual freedoms and liberties can be restricted, controlled, or suppressed. On the other hand, when there is true freedom, there is no need for a centralized governing body or state, as individuals are able to govern themselves and make autonomous choices. It implies that an ideal society is one that prioritizes and safeguards individual freedoms, fostering a stateless environment.

God moves in extremely mysterious, not to say, circuitous ways. God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, ie., everybody, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.
