Jack London:

"History shows that no master class is ever willing to let go without a quarrel. The capitalists own the governments, the armies and the militia. Don't you think the capitalists will use these institutions to keep themselves in power? I do."

--Milwaukee County Leader, 28 May 1913; reprinted in The Western Comrade (June 1913). Taken from the "Jack London Journal," Number 3, 1996
