“Well! you are a democrat?”
“No.”
“What! you would have a monarchy.”
“No.”
“A constitutionalist?”
“God forbid!”
“You are then an aristocrat?”
“Not at all.”
“You want a mixed government?”
“Still less.”
“What are you, then?”
“I am an anarchist.”
“Oh! I understand you; you speak satirically. This is a hit at the government.”
“By no means. I have just given you my serious and well-considered profession of faith. Although a firm friend of order, I am (in the full force of the term) an anarchist. Listen to me.”
