Only through the conscious action of the working masses in city and country can it be brought to life, only through the people's highest intellectual maturity and inexhaustible idealism can it be brought safely through all storms and find its way to port.

Before a revolution happens, it is perceived as impossible; after it happens, it is seen as having been inevitable.

We stand todaybefore the awful proposition: either the triumph of imperialism and the destruction of all culture, and, as in ancient Rome, depopulation, desolation, degeneration, a vast cemetery; or, the victory of socialism.

Life is singing also in the sand crunching under the slow and heavy steps of the guards, when we know how to listen to it.

The most revolutionary thing one can do is always to proclaim loudly what is happening.

The masses are the decisive element, they are the rock on which the final victory of the revolution will be built.

Bourgeois class domination is undoubtedly an historical necessity, but, so too, the rising of the working class against it. Capital is an historical necessity, but, so too, its grave digger, the socialist proletariat.
