I am not interested in dry economic socialism. We are fighting against misery, but we are also fighting against alienation. One of the fundamental objectives of Marxism is to remove interest, the factor of individual interest, and gain, from people's psychological motivations. Marx was preoccupied both with economic factors and with their repercussions on the spirit. If communism isn't interested in this too, it may be a method of distributing goods, but it will never be a revolutionary way of life.

If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine.

The desire to sacrifice an entire lifetime to the noblest of ideals serves no purpose if one works alone.

If Socialism can only be realized when the intellectual development of all the people permits it, then we shall not see Socialism for at least five hundred years.

A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

Sometimes - history needs a push.
