Jean Léon Jaurès was a French Socialist leader. Initially an Opportunist Republican, he evolved into one of the first social democrats, becoming the leader, in 1902, of the French Socialist Party, which opposed Jules Guesde's revolutionary Socialist Party of France. Both parties merged in 1905 in the French Section of the Workers' International (SFIO).

Quotes by Jean Jaurès  (?)

“In our narrow, confined existence, we tend to forget the essence of life ... All of us, whatever our occupation or class, are equally guilty: the employer is lost in the running of his business; the workers, sunk in the abyss of their misery, raise their heads only to cry in protest; we, the politicians, are lost in daily battles and corridor intrigues. All of us forget that before everything else, we are men, ephemeral beings lost in the immense universe, so full of terrors. We are inclined to neglect the search for the real meaning of life, to ignore the real goals - serenity of the spirit and sublimity of the heart ... To reach them - that is the revolution.”
Jean Jaures

“Le courage, c'est de dominer ses propres fautes, d'en souffrir, mais de n'en pas être accablé et de continuer son chemin. Le courage, c'est d'aimer la vie et de regarder la mort d'un regard tranquille ; c'est d'aller à l'idéal et de comprendre le réel ; c'est d'agir et de se donner aux grandes causes sans savoir quelle récompense réserve à notre effort l'univers profond, ni s'il lui réserve une récompense. Le courage, c'est de chercher la vérité et de la dire ; c'est de ne pas subir la loi du mensonge triomphant qui passe, et de ne pas faire écho, de notre âme, de notre bouche et de nos mains aux applaudissements imbéciles et aux huées fanatiques.”
Jean Jaurès
