Von Mises the Great

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.
~ Ludwig Von Mises,
Omnipotent Government: The Rise of the Total State and Total War


No one shall be idle if I have to work; no one shall be rich if I am poor. Thus we see, again and again, that resentment lies behind all socialist ideas.
~ Ludwig Von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis
