"There was a time when there were no states, but there were peoples who governed themselves. Why should we think it will be forever the same? Each of us sucked at our mother's breast, then played, then learned, then married, then worked, educated our children, then grew old, became wise, left everything behind, etc.

There was a time when there were no states, but there were peoples who governed themselves. Why should we think it will be forever the same?

""A fost o vreme când nu existau state, ci erau popoare care se conduceau singure. De ce să credem că va fi veșnic la fel? Fiecare dintre noi a supt la sânul mamei, pe urma s-a jucat, apoi a învățat, apoi s-a căsătorit, apoi a lucrat, și-a educat copiii, pe urma a îmbătrânit, a devenit înțelept, a lăsat toate în urma ș.a.m.d."
