Conversation with Charles Malato, A

London, February 27. From our Special Envoy. After Mecca, Jerusalem and Rome—London! Today London has become an anarchist holy city. Here the militant “companions” have come to fraternize in their miserable exile, thrown out or chased off the continent. Today there are around a thousand of them on the shores of the Thames, mostly French, Italian and Czech. Next come the Swiss and Belgians. As for the Spaniards, they are represented by only two or three revolutionaries, which might seem surprising given the hunt for anarchists that has taken place on the Iberian Peninsula over the past four months. Finally there are many Russian Jews. The most remarkable of the Slavs is indisputably Prince Kropotkin, a ... (From : TheAnarchistLibrary.org.)

Preface to "Socialist Documents"

You have invited me, dear comrade, to add a few lines to the documentary work you’ve just finished.

Only the most uneducated minds can still imagine that religions were created all at once. Spontaneous generation (as in the physical world so in the moral) is much rarer than you might believe. For such a birth to take place, all the constitutive elements have to have already developed, met and combined. The superficial observer, by himself, might ... (From : TheAnarchistLibrary.org.)
