Top 30 Mikhail Bakunin Quotes (2024 Update)

Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “A Boss in Heaven is the best excuse for a boss on earth, therefore If God did exist, he would have to be abolished.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “But here steps in Satan, the eternal rebel, the first freethinker and the emancipator of worlds. He makes man ashamed of his bestial ignorance and obedience; he emancipates him, stamps upon his brow the seal of liberty and humanity, in urging him to disobey and eat of the fruit of knowledge.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Every government, no matter who controls it, is an instrument of oppression.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The real school for the people and for all grown men is life.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “He who is given power will inevitably become an oppressor and exploiter of society.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “My personal freedom, confirmed by the liberty of all, extends to infinity.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The idea of God implies the abdication of human reason and justice; it is the most decisive negation of human liberty and necessarily ends in the enslavement of mankind both in theory and practice.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Bloody revolutions are often necessary, thanks to human stupidity; yet they are always an evil, a monstrous evil and a great disaster, not only with regard to the victims, but also for the sake of the purity and perfection of the purpose in whose name they take place.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “There will be a qualitative transformation, a new living, life-giving revelation, a new heaven and a new earth, a young and mighty world in which all our present dissonances will be resolved into a harmonious whole.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Every command slaps liberty in the face.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “A country bent on conquest is necessarily a country internally enslaved.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “From each according to his faculties; to each according to his needs.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The general idea is always an abstraction and, for that very reason, in some sort a negation of real life. And every time that scientific men, emerging from their abstract world, mingle with living creation in the real world, all that they propose or create is poor, ridiculously abstract, bloodless and lifeless, still-born, like the homunculus created by Wagner, the pedantic disciple of the immortal Doctor Faust.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “I am truly free only when all human beings, men and women, are equally free. The freedom of other men, far from negating or limiting my freedom, is, on the contrary, its necessary premise and confirmation.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “To my utter despair I have discovered, and discover every day anew, that there is in the masses no revolutionary idea or hope or passion.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “If there is an undeniable fact, attested to a thousand times by experience, it is the corrupting effect produced by authority on those who manipulate it It is absolutely impossible for a man who wields power to remain a moral man...”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “There is not, there cannot be, a State without religion. Take the freest States in the world – the United States of America or the Swiss Confederation, for instance – and see what an important part is played in all official discourses by divine Providence, that supreme sanction of all States.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The liberty of man consists solely in this, that he obeys the laws of nature because he has himself recognized them as such, and not because they have been imposed upon him externally by any foreign will whatsoever, human or divine, collective or individual.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “It is not true that the freedom of one man is limited by that of other men. Man is really free to the extent that his freedom, fully acknowledged and mirrored by the free consent of his fellowmen, finds confirmation and expansion in their liberty. Man is truly free only among equally free men; the slavery of even one human being violates humanity and negates the freedom of all.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Between a monarchy and the most democratic republic there is only one essential difference: in the former, the world of officialdom oppresses and robs the people for the greater profit of the privileged and propertied classes, as well as to line its own pockets, in the name of the monarch; in the latter, it oppresses and robs the people in exactly the same way, for the benefit of the same classes and the same pockets, but in the name of the people’s will.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “For behind is our animality and before us our humanity; human light, the only thing that can warm and enlighten us, the only thing that can emancipate us, give us dignity, freedom, and happiness, and realize fraternity among us, is never at the beginning, but, relatively to the epoch in which we live, always at the end of history.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The modern state, in its essence and objectives, is necessarily a military state, and a military state necessarily becomes an aggressive state. If it does not conquer others it will itself be conquered, for the simple reason that wherever force exists, it absolutely must be displayed or put into action.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “If the proletariat is to be the ruling class, it may be asked, then whom will it rule?”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “What predominates in Italy is that destitute proletariat to which Marx and Engels, and, following them, the whole school of German social democrats, refer with the utmost contempt. They do so completely in vain, because here, and here alone, not in the bourgeois stratum of workers, is to be found the mind as well as the might of the future social revolution.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Beware of shearers, for where there is a flock there necessarily must be shepherds also to shear and devour it.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Do you want to make it impossible for anyone to oppress his fellow-man? Then make sure that no one shall possess power.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “Once more, the sole mission of science is to light the road.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “The only difference between revolutionary dictatorship and the state is in external appearances. Essentially, they both represent the same government of the majority by a minority in the name of the presumed stupidity of the one and the presumed intelligence of the other.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “And since it has been established that all peoples, past and present, have believed and still believe in the existence of God, it is clear that those who have the misfortune to doubt it, whatever the logic that led them to this doubt, are abnormal exceptions, monsters.”
Mikhail Bakunin Quote: “A Russia of the people is inconceivable without Polish freedom and independence.”
