The power which establishes a state is violence; the power which maintains it is violence; the power which eventually overthrows it is violence.

I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No... not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening, but love that... overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable - like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture.

The power which establishes a state is violence the power which maintains it is violence the power which eventually overthrows it is violence.
