Political Freedom without economic equality is a pretense, a fraud, a lie; and the workers want no lying.

God, or rather the fiction of God, is thus the sanction and the intellectual and moral cause of all the slavery on earth, and the liberty of men will not be complete, unless it will have completely annihilated the inauspicious fiction of a heavenly master.

If there be a human being who is freer than I, then I shall necessarily become his slave. If I am freer than any other, then he will become my slave. Therefore equality is an absolutely necessary condition of freedom.

Political Freedom without economic equality is a pretense, a fraud, a lie; and the workers want no lying.

The individual who dares commit a crime is guilty in a two-fold sense; first, he is guilty against human conscience, and, above all, he is guilty against the State in arrogating to himself one of its most precious privileges.

The freedom of all is essential to my freedom.

A divine falsehood is more powerful than any human truth.
