Rose Wilder Lane, a 1920s socialist who later turned into an advocate of freedom and individualism
When I raged at … the excluding of legally elected men from legislatures because they were legally elected socialists, half my friends said I was a Bolshevik — and ceased to be my friends. When I refused to give time and money to the revolution, and said that Herbert Hoover was a great man, the other half of my friends said I was a soulless bourgeois, and borrowed $5 from me.
