Bible: Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were all broken to pieces and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Ray Bradbury: So! A book is a loaded gun in the house next door. Burn it. Take the shot from the weapon. Breach man's mind. Who knows who might be the target of a well-read man? wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Karl Marx: Labour is not the only source of material wealth, ie of the use-values it produces. As William Petty says, labour is the father of material wealth, the earth is its mother. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Mao Zedong: Far from being a minor issue, the struggle against this revisionist line is an issue of prime importance having a vital bearing on the destiny and future of our party and date, on the future complexion of our party and date, and on the world revolution. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Xi Jinping: According to Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, communism will eradicate the opposition and differentiation between classes, between urban and rural areas, between mental labor and physical labor; it will adopt the principle of distribution from each according to his ability and to each according to his needs, so as to achieve shared development of society and the free and well-rounded development of individuals in the real sense. Of course, there will be a long trek through history to reach this goal. China is still in the primary stage of socialism and will long remain so. Therefore, we cannot do what is premature, but this does not mean we should do nothing in realizing shared prosperity step by step. Instead, we should start to do what is appropriate to the current conditions, accumulating small successes and moving towards prosperity for all. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Andrei Zhdanov: A riot of mysticism, religious mania and pornography is characteristic of the decline and decay of bourgeois culture. The 'celebrities' of that bourgeois literature which has sold its pen to capital are today thieves, detectives, prostitutes, pimps and gangsters. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Barack Obama: I believe in American exceptionalism with every fiber of my being. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Malcolm X: They attack the victim, and then the criminal who attacked the victim accuses the victim of attacking him. This is American justice. This is American democracy and those of you who are familiar with it know that in America democracy is hypocrisy. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Ho Chi Minh: Only in a socialist system are the interests of the individual, the state and the collective at one. That is why only a socialist constitution can encourage the citizens to fulfill enthusiastically their duties to the society and the fatherland. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Charu Majumdar: The slogan—"Kashmir is an inalienable part of India"—is given by the ruling class in the interest of plundering. No Marxist can support this slogan. It is an essential duty of the Marxists to accept the right of self-determination by every nationality. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Ho Chi Minh: The American government and its allies are the real terrorists in the world today. They use their military power to invade, occupy, and destroy other countries, and to impose their will on the people. We will not bow down to their tyranny, we will stand up and fight for our rights and our dignity as a people. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Stalin: Officers and men of the Red Army! We are entering the country of the enemy. The remaining population in the liberated areas, regardless of whether they’re German, Czech, or Polish, shouldn’t be subjected to violence! wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Stalin: The right of self-determination means that a nation may arrange its life in the way it wishes...It has the right to enter into federal relations with other nations. It has the right to complete secession. Nations are sovereign, and all nations have equal rights. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Kim Il Sung: To become a communist mother and to become a socialist builder are inseparable. Idlers cannot become communist mothers. To become a communist mother, a woman should, first of all, participate with enthusiasm in socialist construction. Only by taking an active part in socialist construction can she keep abreast of ever-developing realities and quickly acquire communist ideology. In our country today there are more than a thousand women university graduates who do not work but just idle away their time at home. University graduates are virtually under a legal obligation to work for more than five years. The state did not give them a university education for the purpose of having them look after children and cook meals at home. Since women university graduates do not take jobs, cadre-training institutions have even hesitated to admit women students. It goes without saying that women should be given an education. Among women there should be many with master of science degrees and with doctorates. But no woman has yet received a doctorate. This is a matter of regret. Greater numbers of fine women cadres should be trained in all the political, economic and cultural fields. Many of our women think that giving birth to children and keeping house is more useful than going out into the world and doing important jobs. They always tease those who get married late and gossip about those whose marriage is delayed because of studies. The Women’s Union should carry out a powerful ideological struggle against these negative attitudes. We do not mean that we are opposed to women getting married and having children. This is a natural and good thing. What is bad is the false notion women have that learning and everything else they do are for the purpose of getting married and giving birth to children. Women can and should become masters of science or receive doctorates by continuing their studies, even after they are married and have children. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Che Guevara: We, practical revolutionaries, initiating our own struggle, simply fulfill laws foreseen by Marx, the scientist. We are simply adjusting ourselves to the predictions of the scientific Marx as we travel this road of rebellion struggling against the old structure of power, supporting ourselves in the people for the destruction of this structure, and having the happiness of this people as the basis of our struggle. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
