The following declaration was shared with me and I have found it to be the greatest of all. The effect is best pronounced when spoken in first person.
"These conclusions I come to:
That I exist in time as a singular subject of experience and action.
That I and I alone have exclusive right to control and direct this existence, because I and I alone inhabit this existence throughout time, and thus no other can produce a higher rightful claim to this existence I inhabit, thus producing the strongest ownership claim in the known universe, being completely fixed and unseverable. This is my self-ownership.
That I own my past and its manifestation in all forms. This is my property.
That I own my present and its manifestation in all forms. This is my liberty.
That I own my future and its manifestation in all forms. This is my life.
That only I rightfully bear all responsibility and consequence for my existence and its manifestations, as I direct them. This is my personal responsibility.
That I and I alone may freely choose with whom I will associate, in any and all ways, at any and all times, to any and all degrees. This is my freedom of association.
That when any aspect of my existence is violated, I alone bear responsibility for its defense and restoration, because it is mine alone.
That all individuals, without reservation or exception, are equal in self-ownership of, and personal responsibility for, their respective existence in time and all its manifestations.
That no individual has the right to rule or otherwise coerce or violate any aspect of another individual's existence, to usurp their self ownership.
That the only just interaction between individuals is that which is consented to by all parties to the interaction, and engaged in voluntarily.
That all individuals, without reservation or exception, and according to their individual preference, possess absolute freedom of association and collaboration for their mutual protection, aid, and benefit and for the protection, aid, and benefit of any others as they choose and by consent.
These conclusions I come to, through the application of intellect, with logic and reason. From these conclusions spring infinite possibilities, restricted only--as is just--by equality of self-ownership, by personal responsibility, and by individual preference. These conclusions underpin spontaneous, uncoerced, natural order on which can develop truly just and civilized society.
This is the meaning of 'anarchy', of existence without rulers.
