Description
Vivid swirls of blue, purple, and red blend together in an abstract form that suggests a mysterious, ethereal presence. Amidst the chaotic color strokes, a white symbol stands prominently at the bottom, adding a graphic element that contrasts with the surrounding hues.
Anarchy is a word that comes from the Greek,(Αναρχία) and signifies, strictly speaking, "without government": the state of a people without any constituted authority.
Man, like all living beings, adapts himself to the conditions in which he lives, and transmits by inheritance his acquired habits. Thus, being born and having lived in bondage, being the descendant of a long line of slaves, man, when he began to think, believed that slavery was an essential condition of life, and liberty seemed to him impossible. In like manner, the workman, forced for centuries to depend upon the goodwill of his employer for work, that is, for bread, and accustomed to see his own life at the disposal of those who possess the land and capital, has ended in believing that it is his master who gives him food, and asks ingenuously how it would be possible to live, if there were no master over him?
