We are told to maintain constitutions because they are constitutions, and what is laid down in those constitutions?... Certain gre...at fundamental ideas of right are common to the world, and ... all laws of man's making which trample on these ideas, are null and void--wrong to obey, right to disobey. The Constitution of the United States recognizes human slavery; and makes the souls of men articles of purchase and of sale.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Anarchism is the only philosophy which brings to man the consciousness of himself; which maintains that God, the State, and societ...y are non-existent, that their promises are null and void, since they can be fulfilled only through man's subordination. Anarchism is therefore the teacher of the unity of life; not merely in nature, but in man.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Worst of all, prostitution reinforces all the old dumb clichés about women'...s sexuality; that they are not built to enjoy sex and are little more than walking masturbation aids, things to be DONE TO, things so sensually null and void that they have to be paid to indulge in fornication, that women can be had, bought, as often as not sold from one man to another. When the sex war is won prostitutes should be shot as collaborators for their terrible betrayal of all women, for the moral tarring and feathering they give indigenous women who have had the bad luck to live in what they make their humping ground.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Human judgment of human actions is true and void, that is to say, first true and then void.... The judgment of the word is true, t...he judgment in itself is void.... Only he who is a party can really judge, but as a party he cannot judge. Hence it follows that there is no possibility of judgment in the world, only a glimmer of it.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Silent rushes the swift Lord Through ruined systems still restored,... Broadsowing, bleak and void to bless, Plants with worlds the wilderness; Waters with tears of ancient sorrow Apples of Eden ripe to-morrow. House and tenant go to ground, Lost in God, in Godhead found.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
If I could put my woods in song, And tell what's there enjoyed,... All men would to my gardens throng, And leave the cities void.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
