"I did not believe that a Cause which stood for a beautiful ideal, for anarchism, for release and freedom from conventions and prejudice, should demand the denial of life and joy. I insisted that our Cause could not expect me to become a nun and that the movement should not be turned into a cloister. If it meant that, I did not want it. 'I want freedom, the right to self-expression, everybody's right to beautiful, radiant things.' Anarchism meant that to me, and I would live it in spite of the whole world--prisons, persecution, everything. Yes, even in spite of the condemnation of my own comrades I would live my beautiful ideal." Emma Goldman

'''Life's too short to bang my head against the POV brick walls here, so I quit. Congratulations to all the editors with closed minds and no real knowledge of history and meaning who chased me off. ''' Donnacha 23:46, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

'OK, I'm back for a bit to do some stuff on family history (Harry Boland and James Boland) and hoping to avoid POV battles'
