Utopias Lead to the Guillotine

March 6, 2010 · Leave a Comment

My obsession has been that we should have a revolution that not resemble the French or Russian, but rather the American, in the sense that it be for something, not against something. A revolution for a constitution, not a paradise. An anti-utopian revolution. Because utopias lead to the guillotine and the gulag.
