A guaranteed income ... could for the first time free man from the threat of starvation, and thus make him truly free and independent economically and psychologically. ... People would no longer learn to be afraid, if they did not have to fear for their bread.
- Erich Fromm, The Psychological Aspects of the Guaranteed Income, in "The Guaranteed Income", ed. Robert Theobald (1966)
