Quote #1 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Revolution and Society
“The resistance movement was global. Riots broke out, crops were burned, Happicuppa cafés were looted, Happicuppa personnel were car-bombed or kidnapped or shot by snipers or beaten to death by mobs; and, on the other side, peasants were massacred by the army. Or by the armies, various armies; number of countries were involved. But the soldiers and dead peasants all looked much the same whenever they were. They looked dusty. It was amazing how much dust got stirred up in the course of such events.”
