48. (Edit in Post) Not to dispute the sentiment, because the OP is certainly not anarchy.

But anarchists believe that anarchy is the natural order of society where people collectively live together and own the means of production and their product. Pierre-Joseph Proudhon famously claimed in "What is Property?", "Anarchy is the mother of order!" Meaning that when the many have control over their own lives, and collectively worked together, that this was the natural order of man, as opposed to the class structure where the elites impose their disorder on the rest of humanity.

Adolf Fischer also states, "A more orderly, equitable and harmonious arrangement of social affairs than has hitherto prevailed. Anarchism is aiming at this; anarchism is seeking a more just form of society. Therefore every anarchist is a socialist but every socialist is not necessarily an anarchist."

Edit to add this quote by Alexander Berkman:

The more enlightened man will become, the less he will employ compulsion and coercion. The really civilized man will divest himself of all fear and authority. He will rise from the dust and stand erect: he will bow to no tsar either in heaven or on earth. He will become fully human when he will scorn to rule and refuse to be ruled. He will be truly free only when there shall be no more masters. Anarchism is the ideal of such a condition; of a society without force and compulsion, where all men shall be equals, and live in freedom, peace, and harmony. The word Anarchy comes from the Greek, meaning without force, without violence or government, because government is the very fountainhead of violence, constraint, and coercion. Anarchy therefore does not mean disorder and chaos, as you thought before. On the contrary, it is the very reverse of it; it means no government, which is freedom and liberty. Disorder is the child of authority and compulsion. Liberty is the mother of order.

Alexander Berkman, in "Is Anarchism Violence?" in ABC of Anarchism (1929)
