- Henry Kissinger: Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.
- Fidel Castro: This position of the Trotskyists is the same which all newspapers and publicity agencies of Yankee imperialism adopted in relation to the cause of Comrade Ernesto Guevara. All the imperialist press of the United States, its news agencies, the Cuban counter-revolutionaries' press, the bourgeois press throughout the continent and the rest of the world - in other words, this campaign of slanders and intrigues against revolutionary Cuba in connection with the case of Comrade Guevara - coincided with precision with all imperialist bourgeois sectors, all the slanderers and all the conspirators against the Cuban revolution, for there is no doubt that only reaction and imperialism is interested in discrediting the Cuban revolution and in destroying the confidence of the revolutionary movements in the Cuban revolution, in destroying the confidence of the Latin American peoples in the Cuban revolution, in destroying their faith. Therefore, they have not hesitated to use the dirtiest and most indecent weapons.
- Fidel Castro: Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction.
- Fidel Castro: Yon Sosa led the movement of a group of armed officers in the crushing of whom the mercenaries who later invaded Playa Girón participated.

By doing this, the Fourth International committed a real crime against the revolutionary movement to isolate it from the rest of the people, to isolate it from the masses, when it contaminated it with the stupidities, the discredit, and the repugnant thing which Trotskyism today is in the field of politics.

And to make sure that that doesn’t happen.
- Lenin: Prompted by fear of revolution, the old state power, which is independent of the people and is a power over the people, promises the people that it will ensure their freedom. But its promises remain unfulfilled; they cannot be fulfilled.
- James Connolly: If you remove the English army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle, unless you set about the organisation of the Socialist Republic, your efforts would be in vain.

- Stalin: All that Marxism declares is that until classes have been completely abolished, and until work has been transformed from being a means of maintaining existence, into a prime necessity of life, into voluntary labour performed for the benefit of society, people will continue to be paid for their labour in accordance with the amount of labour performed.
- Stalin: The October Revolution is neither the continuation nor the culmination of the Great French Revolution. The purpose of the French Revolution was to put an end to feudalism and establish capitalism. The aim of the October Revolution is to put an end to capitalism and to establish socialism.

- Lenin: Deafened by liberal catch-phrases, people in our country are apt to overlook the actual class stand of the liberal party’s real bosses.
- Lenin: The proletariat’s struggle against the bourgeoisie, which finds expression in a variety of forms ever richer in content, inevitably becomes a political struggle directed towards the conquest of political power by the proletariat (“the dictatorship of the proletariat”).
Saramago: People live with the illusion that we have a democratic system, but it’s only the outward form of one. In reality we live in a plutocracy, a government of the rich. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5701

Débarrassez-vous de la tristesse et de la mélancolie. La vie est douce, elle est courte et nous devons en profiter maintenant.
Citation mal traduite extraite de "El maleficio de la mariposa", la première pièce du dramaturge espagnol Federico García Lorca (1920).
Extrait de "El maleficio de la mariposa" de Federico García Lorca (1920):
CURIANA NIGROMÁNTICA: Posée sur les feuilles d'une marguerite;
Lavez-vous avec la rosée et ne marchez pas; prendre
ces poudres de crâne de fourmi sacrée.
Prenez-les le soir avec du mastranzo.
DOÑA CURIANA: Amie,
Que le grand Cucaracho te rende sa pareille avec amour
Et qu'il fasse de vous une fleur dans vos rêves!
(Caresse)
Jetez la tristesse et la mélancolie;
La vie est gentille, elle a peu de jours,
Et c'est seulement maintenant que nous devons en profiter.CURIANA NIGROMÁNTICA: (Comme si elle rêvait.)
Toutes les étoiles vont s'éteindre.DOÑA CURIANA: Ne pensez pas à cela, voisine docteur,
Regardez la joie que nous apporte l'aube.
|Débarrassez-vous de la tristesse et de la mélancolie. La vie est douce, elle est courte et nous devons en profiter maintenant.|

Le rôle de la douleur, des déceptions et des idées noires n'est pas de nous aigrir, de nous faire perdre notre valeur et notre dignité, mais de nous mûrir et de nous purifier.
Citation extraite de "Peter Camenzind" de Hermann Hesse (1904).
La purification serait plutôt le rôle de la mort, à la condition d'avoir converti son cœur. Pour la maturation, les épreuves peuvent aider, en effet, mais il y a d'autres moyens moins traumatisants.
Extrait de "Peter Camenzind" de Hermann Hesse (1904):
Je revis ma mère mourante. Je revis sur son visage l'œuvre silencieuse et sévère de la mort qui l'ennoblissait. Elle avait l'air revêche, la mort, mais puissante aussi et bonne, comme une mère ramenant au foyer avec précautions un enfant égaré.
Soudain, je compris à nouveau que la mort est notre sœur bonne et sage; elle sait l'heure qui convient et nous devons lui faire confiance. Je me mis aussi à comprendre que le rôle de la douleur, des déceptions et des idées noires n'est pas de nous aigrir, de nous faire perdre notre valeur et notre dignité, mais de nous mûrir et de nous purifier.
Huit jours plus tard mes malles étaient expédiées à Bâle et je parcourais à pied une bonne partie de la France du Sud, sentant de jour en jour pâlir et se dissiper comme des brumes les heures de Paris dont le souvenir me poursuivait de sa puanteur. J'assistai à une «Cour d'Amour», je passai la nuit dans des châteaux, dans des moulins, dans des granges, et je bus avec les gars bruns et communicatifs le vin qu'ils ont produit et qui vous met dans l'âme chaleur et soleil.
|Le rôle de la douleur, des déceptions et des idées noires n'est pas de nous aigrir, de nous faire perdre notre valeur et notre dignité, mais de nous mûrir et de nous purifier.|

L'humour renforce notre instinct de survie et sauvegarde notre santé d'esprit.
Citation extraite de "Histoire de ma vie" ("My Autobiography") de Charlie Chaplin (1964).
Extrait de "Histoire de ma vie" ("My Autobiography") de Charlie Chaplin (1964):
Ma conception à moi de l'humour est quelque peu différente: c'est à mes yeux le subtil décalage qu'on distingue dans ce qui semble être le comportement normal. Autrement dit, l'humour nous permet de voir, à travers ce qui paraît rationnel, l'irrationnel. Il renforce aussi notre instinct de survie et sauvegarde notre santé d'esprit. Grâce à l'humour, nous sommes moins accablés par les vicissitudes de l'existence. Il développe notre sens des proportions et nous révèle que l'absurde rôde toujours derrière une gravité exagérée.

- Noam Chomsky: See, people with power understand exactly one thing: violence.
- George Bernard Shaw: Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
- Henry Kissinger: Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.
- Fidel Castro: This position of the Trotskyists is the same which all newspapers and publicity agencies of Yankee imperialism adopted in relation to the cause of Comrade Ernesto Guevara. All the imperialist press of the United States, its news agencies, the Cuban counter-revolutionaries' press, the bourgeois press throughout the continent and the rest of the world - in other words, this campaign of slanders and intrigues against revolutionary Cuba in connection with the case of Comrade Guevara - coincided with precision with all imperialist bourgeois sectors, all the slanderers and all the conspirators against the Cuban revolution, for there is no doubt that only reaction and imperialism is interested in discrediting the Cuban revolution and in destroying the confidence of the revolutionary movements in the Cuban revolution, in destroying the confidence of the Latin American peoples in the Cuban revolution, in destroying their faith. Therefore, they have not hesitated to use the dirtiest and most indecent weapons.
- Fidel Castro: Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction.

And to make sure that that doesn’t happen.

Arthur Claude Strachan
Arthur Claude Strachan est un peintre écossais né à Édimbourg le 15 mars 1865, fils de George Strachan, architecte, et de sa femme Mary (née Dalrymple). Il a étudié l'art à Liverpool et a ensuite voyagé à travers le Royaume-Uni pour peindre des paysages de campagne.
Entre 1885 et 1929, il expose à Londres et en province et présente quatre œuvres à la Royal Academy. Toute la famille Strachan s'installe à Liverpool dans les années 1880.
Lors du recensement de 1901, Arthur Strachan vit avec sa mère veuve et ses quatre frères et sœurs (tous célibataires) à Normanby Street, Toxteth Park, Liverpool.
À l'âge de 38 ans, Strachan épouse Alice Forbes au cours du deuxième trimestre de 1903. Le mariage a eu lieu à Toxteth Park, Liverpool, mais ils ont dû déménager à Evesham peu de temps après, car leur premier enfant, Mabel, est né à Evesham au début de l'année 1904. Elle fut suivie deux ans plus tard par Evelyn Mary en 1906.
Le registre électoral de 1905 indique qu'Arthur vit à Northwick Road, Evesham. La presse locale révèle que Strachan est membre de la société chorale d'Evesham et qu'il joue du violoncelle. Le Evesham Standard du 20 avril 1907 indique qu'il faisait partie d'un groupe de 100 personnes qui s'est produit avec la société chorale d'Evesham à All Saints, Evesham.
En 1911, Strachan vivait au 71 Burford Road, Bengeworth, Evesham, avec sa femme Alice et ses filles Mabel et Evelyn, ainsi qu'un domestique.
Strachan est décrit comme un artiste peintre. On ne sait pas quand les Strachan ont quitté Evesham, mais ils vivaient à Wallasey, dans le Lancashire, en 1921. Ils ont ensuite déménagé à Minehead, dans le Somerset, où Alice Strachan est décédée le 10 février 1934.
Strachan vivait au 14 Queens Road, Minehead, au moment du registre de 1939; ses deux filles vivaient avec lui. Il est décédé, à l'âge de 89 ans, le 7 août 1954 à l'hôpital Williton de Minehead (la majorité des sources sur Internet donnent à tort la date de son décès comme étant 1929 ou 1938).
Les filles de Strachan ne se sont jamais mariées et ont continué à vivre dans le Somerset. Mabel est décédée en 1958 et Evelyn en 1964.

Les mots que l'on n'a pas dits sont les fleurs du silence.
Mauvaise traduction d'un proverbe japonais bien connu.
La vraie formule est plus courte: «言わぬが花(イワヌガハナ)»
«Ne pas dire est une fleur (une Ixeris stolonifera).»
Cette phrase provient d'un vers de la pièce "Shinpan Utazaimon" (La Nouvelle Ballade Scandaleuse de Osome et Hisamatsu) jouée pour la première fois le 9e mois lunaire de 1780 à Ôsaka au Takemotoza:
«言わぬが花嫁» (Le non-dit est la mariée.)
Cette phrase a été raccourcie en «Le non-dit est la fleur». On dit aussi qu'elle signifie «Yoshinoyama, la fleur dont on ne parle pas».
Yoshinoyama (Mont Yoshino) est un lieu d'observation des cerisiers en fleurs bien connu dans la préfecture de Nara.

|Les mots que l'on n'a pas dits sont les fleurs du silence.|
Rachel Corrie: When I come back from Palestine, I probably will have nightmares and constantly feel guilty for not being here, but I can channel that into more work. Coming here is one of the better things I've ever done. So when I sound crazy, or if the Israeli military should break with their racist tendency not to injure white people, please pin the reason squarely on the fact that I am in the midst of a genocide which I am also indirectly supporting, and for which my government is largely responsible. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5715

- Lenin: Miraculous prophecy is a fairy-tale. But scientific prophecy is a fact.
- Noam Chomsky: See, people with power understand exactly one thing: violence.
- George Bernard Shaw: Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.
- Henry Kissinger: Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.
- Fidel Castro: This position of the Trotskyists is the same which all newspapers and publicity agencies of Yankee imperialism adopted in relation to the cause of Comrade Ernesto Guevara. All the imperialist press of the United States, its news agencies, the Cuban counter-revolutionaries' press, the bourgeois press throughout the continent and the rest of the world - in other words, this campaign of slanders and intrigues against revolutionary Cuba in connection with the case of Comrade Guevara - coincided with precision with all imperialist bourgeois sectors, all the slanderers and all the conspirators against the Cuban revolution, for there is no doubt that only reaction and imperialism is interested in discrediting the Cuban revolution and in destroying the confidence of the revolutionary movements in the Cuban revolution, in destroying the confidence of the Latin American peoples in the Cuban revolution, in destroying their faith. Therefore, they have not hesitated to use the dirtiest and most indecent weapons.
- Fidel Castro: Even though at one time Trotskyism represented an erroneous position, but a position in the field of political ideas, Trotskyism became during the following years a vulgar instrument of imperialism and reaction.

Through a businessman who took charge of the movement's political aspects, the Fourth International fixed it up so that that leader, who was ignorant of the profound problems of politics and of the history of revolutionary thought, would permit that agents of Trotskyism, about whom we do not have the slightest doubt that he is an agent of imperialism, to publish a newspaper which copies outright the program of the Fourth International. By doing this, the Fourth International committed a real crime against the revolutionary movement to isolate it from the rest of the people, to isolate it from the masses, when it contaminated it with the stupidities, the discredit, and the repugnant thing which Trotskyism today is in the field of politics.

En ces temps d'imposture universelle, dire la vérité est un acte révolutionnaire.
Citation apocryphe.
En ces temps d'imposture universelle, les apocryphes se ramassent à la pelle et sont adorés. Pourtant, la vérité est plus pimentée.

|En ces temps d'imposture universelle, dire la vérité est un acte révolutionnaire.|
Lenin: We must take as our point of departure the universally recognised Marxist thesis that a programme must be built on a scientific foundation. It must explain to the people how the communist revolution arose, why it is inevitable, what its significance, nature, and power are, and what problems it must solve. Our programme must be a summary for agitational purposes, a summary such as all programmes were, such as, for instance, the Erfurt Programme was. Every clause of that programme contained material for agitators to use in hundreds of thousands of speeches and articles. Every clause of our programme is something that every working man and woman must know, assimilate and understand. If they do not know what capitalism is, if they do not understand that small peasant and handicraft economy constantly, inevitably and necessarily engenders this capitalism—if they do not understand this, then even if they were to declare themselves Communists a hundred times and flaunt the most radical communism, it would not be worth a brass farthing, because we value communism only when it is based on economic facts. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5716

Ayn Rand: (Native Americans) didn't have any rights to the land, and there was no reason for anyone to grant them rights which they had not conceived and were not using. What was it that they were fighting for, when they opposed white men on this continent? For their wish to continue a primitive existence, their 'right' to keep part of the earth untouched, unused and not even as property, but just keep everybody out so that you will live practically like an animal, or a few caves above it. Any white person who brings the element of civilization has the right to take over this continent. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote5717
