The state exists at our expense, and we do not live at the expense of the state. For this reason we do not have any duty to the motherland, but it has duties to us in the face of the state.

The destiny of my state is not my destiny.

Taxpayer is a person who pays for the maintenance of the state, so the phrase "obligations of a citizen to the state" is so false, how true the phrase "duty of the state to the taxpayer" is.

Person has the right not to recognize the sovereignty of the state and thus he has right to avoid the taxes. Human freedom is always higher than the sovereignty of the state.

I am too serious to be a patriot.

When the state cannot raise people as scientists, it raises people as martyrs.
