- 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.
- 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. 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.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.: So today capitalism has out-lived its usefulness. It has brought about a system that takes necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.
- Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: It is the beginning of the end.
- Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord: Financiers flourish only when nations decline.
- George Friedman: The primordial interest of the United States, over which for centuries we have fought wars– the First, the Second and Cold Wars– has been the relationship between Germany and Russia, because united there, they’re the only force that could threaten us. 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.
- Lenin: There are moments in history when a desperate struggle of the masses, even for a hopeless cause, is essential for the further schooling of these masses and their training for the next struggle.
- Kim Il Sung: Our ideal is to build a society where everyone is well fed, well clothed, and lives a long life, a society where everybody is progressive and works devotedly, a society where all people live united in harmony as one big family.
- Michael Parenti: To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.
- Edward Snowden: There is nothing more grotesque than a media pushing for war.
- Lenin: Practice is higher than (theoretical) knowledge, for it has not only the dignity of universality, but also of immediate actuality.
- Stalin: Only in the highest phase of communism will people, working in accordance with their capacity, receive recompense therefor in accordance with their needs: "From each according to his capacity, to each according to his needs."
- 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: We shall not achieve socialism without a struggle. But we are ready to fight, we have started it and we shall finish it with the aid of the apparatus called the Soviets.
- Gilbert Scott-Heron: The first revolution is when you change your mind.
- Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya: Solidarity among the male and female workers, a general cause, general goals, a general path to that goal - that is the solution to the "woman" question in the working-class environment.
- Lenin: No idea could be more erroneous or harmful than to separate foreign from home policy.
- Kim Jong-il: Introducing individualism into socialism, which is based entirely on collectivism, is tantamount to taking poison.
- Langston Hughes: Put one more S in the U.S.A. To make it Soviet.
- Lenin: There is a good Latin proverb which says: “It is natural for all men to err; but only a fool persists in his error.
- Lenin: A Marxist must take cognisance of real life, of the true facts of reality, and not cling to a theory of yesterday, which, like all theories, at best only outlines the main and the general, only comes near to embracing life in all its complexity.
- Kim Il Sung: It can be said that the life of a revolutionary begins by going among the masses and that it is over when he parts from them.
- 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”).

C'est le fait d'un ignorant d'accuser les autres de ses propres échecs, celui qui a commencé de s'instruire s'en accuse soi-même, celui qui est instruit n'en accuse ni autrui ni soi-même.
Traduction qui déforme la pensée d'Épictète dans son "Manuel" rédigé par son disciple Arrien (vers 125 après J.-C.), Épictète n'ayant lui-même rien écrit, comme Socrate).
google.fr/books/edition/Manuel…
Extrait du "Manuel" d'Épictète rédigé par son disciple Arrien (vers 125 après J.-C.):
Ce qui trouble les hommes, ce ne sont pas les choses, mais leurs opinions sur les choses. Par exemple, la mort n'est rien de terrible, car Socrate aussi l'aurait trouvée terrible; mais notre opinion sur la mort, qui nous la fait regarder comme terrible, voilà ce qui est terrible. Lors donc que nous sommes entravés, ou troublés, ou affligés, n'accusons jamais autrui, mais nous-mêmes, c'est-à-dire nos opinions. Œuvre d'ignorant, que d'accuser les autres de ses propres maux; l'homme qui commence à s'instruire s'accuse lui-même; l'homme instruit, ni les autres ni soi.
|C'est le fait d'un ignorant d'accuser les autres de ses propres échecs, celui qui a commencé de s'instruire s'en accuse soi-même, celui qui est instruit n'en accuse ni autrui ni soi-même.|

- 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.

- 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. 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.

- 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.

Friedrich Engels: All revolutions up to the present day have resulted in the displacement of the rule of one class by the rule of another; but all ruling classes up to now have been only small minorities in relation to the ruled mass of the people. One ruling minority was thus overthrown; another minority seized the helm of state in its stead and refashioned the state institutions to suit its own interests. Thus on every occasion a minority group was enabled and called upon to rule by the given degree of economic development; and just for that reason, and only for that reason, it happened that the ruled majority either participated in the revolution for the benefit of the former or else simply acquiesced in it. But if we disregard the concrete content in each case, the common form of all these revolutions was that they were minority revolutions. Even when the majority took part, it did so — whether wittingly or not — only in the service of a minority; but because of this, or even simply because of the passive, unresisting attitude of the majority, this minority acquired the appearance of being the representative of the whole people. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

- 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: 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.

Victor Gilbert
Victor Gabriel Gilbert, né le 13 février 1847 à Paris et mort le 21 juillet 1935 dans la même ville, était un artiste peintre français.
D'origine modeste, Victor Gilbert est placé en 1860 comme apprenti chez un peintre décorateur. Il suit, le soir, des cours d’art sous la direction du père Levasseur, à l’École de la Ville de Paris. Il débute au Salon des artistes français de 1873, avec deux toiles, Avant le bal et Les apprêts du diner. Vers la fin des années 1870, son goût pour le naturalisme s'affirme et il se tourne vers la peinture de genre avec des scènes de rues, de cafés, de marchés, en particulier celui des Halles. Il obtient une médaille de seconde classe au Salon de 1880 et une médaille d’argent à l’exposition universelle de 1889. Il devient sociétaire de la Société des artistes français en 1914.
Son travail devient populaire dans les années 1880, du fait que la maison Goupil & Cie, gros producteur d'estampes, traduit ses toiles en «chromos» photogravés, et les diffuse partout.
Victor Gilbert est nommé chevalier de la Légion d'honneur en 18975, et reçoit le prix Léon Bonnat en 1926.
Durant la Belle Époque, les trottoirs de Paris étaient peuplés de marchands de toutes sortes. Témoin de son temps, Victor Gilbert s'intéresse à la stature et fierté des travailleurs des Halles, aux marchés de Paris, mais aussi de province. Ses bols de soupe fumante et autre bœuf dépecé, sa vision, sensible, témoigne aussi de la dureté de la vie quotidienne.
Les critiques de l’époque disent de lui «La peinture de Victor Gilbert chante le travail au grand jour (…) elle n’exalte que les labeurs honnêtes. Elle est vivante et bien moderne, pleine d’exubérance et de force, avec des raffinements et des délicatesses de tons d’une habilité et d’une souplesse qui sentent la maîtrise.»
Victor Gilbert aime tout autant peindre la fraîcheur et gaîté de l'enfance à Paris ou en province. Ses couleurs sont paisibles, reposante aux harmonies heureuses. Durant cette période, enfin le statut de l’enfant évolue. Le mariage arrangé fait place petit à petit au mariage par amour, qui va sacraliser le nouveau-né. Victor Gilbert peint remarquablement cette période de l'enfant-roi… qui croise celui qui mendie.
Primé au Salon des artistes français, reconnu comme un personnage illustre de son temps, Victor Gilbert est reçu dans les milieux mondains. Son élégance naturelle en fait un invité de choix. Il témoignera également de ces moments de fêtes qui marquèrent la Belle époque.
Il est inhumé au cimetière de Montmartre à Paris (19e division).
Enrique Paternina
Enrique Paternina García-Cid (Haro, 7 janvier 1866, 28 octobre 1910) était un peintre espagnol.
Membre d'une famille aisée, il se consacre au commerce du vin. En 1881, il remporte le premier prix de dessin de figures au lycée d'Orduña. Il étudie à l'Académie royale des beaux-arts de San Fernando, à Madrid, avec Alejandro Ferrant comme professeur. En 1887, il se rend en Italie, parcourt le pays et s'installe dans la capitale en compagnie de Baldomero Sáenz et Mariano Barbasan. Un an plus tard, il rejoint l'Association artistique internationale de Rome. Avec son œuvre la plus célèbre, La visita de la madre al hospital («Visite de la mère à l'hôpital» (Museo de Bellas Artes de Badajoz, en dépôt au Museo del Prado), il obtient la médaille de deuxième classe à l'Exposition nationale des beaux-arts de 1892 et à l'Exposition d'art de Bilbao de la même année. Il participe à la Troisième exposition des beaux-arts et des industries artistiques de Barcelone en 1896, à laquelle Picasso participe également avec La primera comunión («Première communion»). Son œuvre se concentre sur des thèmes sociaux, sans pour autant négliger le paysage et la peinture de genre.

- Lenin: There are moments in history when a desperate struggle of the masses, even for a hopeless cause, is essential for the further schooling of these masses and their training for the next struggle.
- Kim Il Sung: Our ideal is to build a society where everyone is well fed, well clothed, and lives a long life, a society where everybody is progressive and works devotedly, a society where all people live united in harmony as one big family.
- Michael Parenti: To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.
- Edward Snowden: There is nothing more grotesque than a media pushing for war.
- Lenin: Practice is higher than (theoretical) knowledge, for it has not only the dignity of universality, but also of immediate actuality.
- Stalin: Only in the highest phase of communism will people, working in accordance with their capacity, receive recompense therefor in accordance with their needs: "From each according to his capacity, to each according to his needs."
- 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”).
Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux
Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux, né à Joinville-le-Pont le 15 juillet 1862 et mort à Valmondois le 11 août 1906, était un peintre, céramiste et illustrateur français.
Henri Alphonse Louis Laurent naît à Joinville-le-Pont, alors dans le département de la Seine (aujourd’hui Val-de-Marne). Il est le fils de deux artistes-peintres: Henri Adolphe Louis Laurent (né à Valenciennes en 1830) et Lydie Adèle Laurent-Desrousseaux (née à Cherbourg en 1836).
Il entre en 1881 à l'École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts où il a comme professeur Émile Bin et Albert Maignan. Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux peint notamment des scènes religieuses et des paysages. Plusieurs de ses œuvres sont primées lors des Salons de Paris et aux expositions universelles de 1889 et 1900 à Paris. Selon le critique d'art Firmin Javel, Laurent-Desrousseaux est «un poète» et «un jeune artiste qui obtiendra également le plus vif succès» citant certaines de ses aquarelles (le Chemin de la ferme, la Plage, Dans les foins, la Combe d'Amorey), il considère qu’il s’agit «d’autant de pages exquises, autant d'impressions justes. Et quelle originalité dans le choix des modèles!». Pour un chroniqueur du quotidien Le Gaulois «Laurent-Desrousseaux est un jeune maître absolument; il possède un acquis singulier, il y a quelque chose de définitif, d'arrêté dans son œuvre. La Pharmacie de village avec, sous la lueur de la lampe, ses religieuses en cornette préparant les médicaments, est d'une impression reposante. Le pastel le Fond du jardin transporte dans un coin du Paradou de Zola. Les tons de ses chairs, de ses fleurs sont d'une délicatesse et d'une transparence inouïes».
Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux rencontre Camille Moreau-Nélaton (1840-1897), peintre et céramiste; elle est la mère du peintre et historien d'art Étienne Moreau-Nélaton. Il décide de s’adonner principalement à cette dernière discipline. Pour ses céramiques, il utilisera le pseudonyme de Henri-Léon Charles Robalbhen et créera des pièces qui seront très appréciées par le public.
En tant qu’illustrateur, Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux collabore à divers journaux, comme Le Figaro illustré, La Mode pratique. Il réalise des aquarelles pour des romans, comme celui d'Alphonse Daudet, le Trésor d'Arlatan ou Reine des bois, écrit par André Theuriet.
À la fin du dix-neuvième siècle, il partage un atelier avec ses parents rue Hippolyte-Lebas, dans le 9e. Henri Laurent-Desrousseaux s’installe ensuite à Valmondois, alors en Seine-et-Oise, aujourd’hui dans le Val-d'Oise, dans une maison paysanne où il fait construire un four de potier. Il y décède le 11 août 1906, à l’âge de 44 ans. Un beau bas-relief orne sa tombe dans le cimetière municipal de cette ville.
