Ah, ha, you thought it was a herd of slaves
You had to tackle, and you didn't guess
The thirst for glory ardent in our blood.
• 2
Revolutions are not waged without revolutionaries.
• 3
It is to others, the ones who learn to hate as they proceed along the thorny path of a life made up of hardships and bitterness; the ones who steal a little time from their sleep in order to learn to read and write, enough to review the debts you owe them, who will not forget Leon Czolgosz's act.
• 4
For all men, in truth, should answer only to how they have lived within their milieu and how they have faced up to the social crises of their times.
• 5
I did not know where the insurgents were, but I knew against whom they were rebelling and that was sufficient.
• 6
...as I become more and more conscious of the vital importance of this idea, I felt myself in the position of one who has discovered that a house is on fire; and I found that it was up to me to shout out the warning! The tone of the voice may have been indelicate and unladylike, and was not at all the tone than many of us would rather hear.
• 7
We are all ragamuffins together, and as the aggregate of Communistic society we might call ourselves a "ragamuffin crew."
• 8
In a gathering of revolutionists the police force their way in and ask the orator for his name; everybody knows that the police have the right to do so, but they do not have it from the revolutionist, since he is their enemy; he tells them a false name and -- cheats them with a lie.
• 9
...when you plant, or bury, a hero in his field, a crop of heroes is sure to spring up. This is a seed of such force and vitality, that it does not ask our leave to germinate.
• 10
...there are some, who, if they were tied to a whipping-post, and could but get one hand free, would use it to ring the bells and fire the cannons, to celebrate their liberty.
• 11
There are people (we ourselves are such) who realize that our Government is very bad, and who struggle against it.
• 12
Among the exploited, gentlemen, there are two classes of individuals. Those of one class, not realizing what they are and what they might be, take life as it comes, believe that they are born to be slaves, and content themselves with the little that is given them in exchange for their labor. But there are others, on the contrary, who think, who study, and who, looking about them, discover social iniquities. Is it their fault if they see clearly and suffer at seeing others suffer? Then they throw themselves into the struggle, and make themselves the bearers of the popular claims.
• 13
...we should remember that the characteristics of activists are very different from the characteristics of those most likely to profess a belief in the idea of worker participation.
• 14
Lay the two aspects of Russian rural life side by side: the peasant who has the restlessness of the nomad in his blood, and the police-state which enforces upon him the static obligations of the serf status: the urge to be up and moving on the one hand, and the passport and the pursuing authority on the other: and you have the key to some of the contradictions of Russian history.
