More quotes by Wilhelm Reich
Work democracy does not wish to prevent or prohibit anything. Its only intention is the fulfilment of the biological life functions, of love, work and knowledge.
Wilhelm Reich
Mistaking insolence for freedom has always been the hallmark of the slave.
Wilhelm Reich
Honest pioneer work in the field of science has always been, and will continue to be, life's pilot. On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation.
Wilhelm Reich
Full sexual consciousness and a natural regulation of sexual life mean the end of mystical feelings of any kind. In other words, natural sexuality is the deadly enemy of mystical religion. The church, by making the fight over sexuality the center of its dogmas and of its influence over the masses, confirms this concept.
Wilhelm Reich
The fact that Hitler was a political genius unmasks the nature of politics in general as no other fact can.
Wilhelm Reich
It is the basic evasion of the essential which is the problem of man.
Wilhelm Reich
If the psychic energies of the average mass of people watching a football game or a musical comedy could be diverted into the rational channels of a freedom movement, they would be invincible.

On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation.
Wilhelm Reich
No man-made law ever, no matter whether derived from the past or projected onto a distant, unforeseeable future, can or should ever be empowered to claim that it is greater than the Natural Law from which it stems and to which it must inevitably return in the eternal rhythm of creation and decline of all things natural.
Wilhelm Reich
Sexually awakened women, affirmed and recognized as such, would mean the complete collapse of the authoritarian ideology
Wilhelm Reich
Most intellectual people do not believe in God, but they fear him just the same.
Wilhelm Reich
A living creature develops a destructive impulse when it wants to destroy a source of danger... The original motive is not pleasure in destruction... I destroy in a dangerous situation because I want to live and do not want to have any anxiety. In short, the impulse to destroy serves a primary biological will to live.
Wilhelm Reich
If freedom means, first of all, the responsibility of every individual for the rational determination of his own personal, professional and social existence, then there is no greater fear than that of the establishment of general freedom.
Wilhelm Reich
The discovery of orgone energy was made through consistent, thorough study of energy functions, first in the realm of the psyche, and later in the realm of biological functioning.
Wilhelm Reich
Scientific theory is a contrived foothold in the chaos of living phenomena.
Wilhelm Reich
People should be _very_ careful when choosing the future fathers and mothers of their children. For that reason alone, it is extremely mean to demand a marriage certificate for life, just for one night of embracement.
Wilhelm Reich
Every muscular rigidity contains the history and the meaning of its origin.
Wilhelm Reich
In its pure form, fascism is the sum total of all irrational reactions of the average human character.
Wilhelm Reich
Love is the absence of Anxiety.
Wilhelm Reich
