Revolutionary Thinking Quotes

“The reactionary of any kind condemns sexual pleasure because it stimulates and repulses him at the same time. He is unable to solve the conflict within him between sexual demands and moralistic inhibitions. The revolutionary refutes the perverse, unhealthy kind of pleasure, because it is not his kind of pleasure, because it is not the sexuality of the future, but the sexuality which results from the conflict between instinct and morals, the sexuality of authoritarian society, a debased, smutty, pathological sexuality.”
― Wilhelm Reich, The Mass Psychology of Fascism

“It is amazing how desperately the self-proclaimed revolutionaries grope for their own orthodoxy.”
― A.E. Samaan

“O ecossocialismo é uma ética radical, no sentido etimológico da palavra: uma ética que se propõe ir à raiz do mal. As meias-medidas, as semirreformas, as conferências do Rio, os mercados de direito de poluição são incapazes de dar uma solução. É necessária uma mudança radical de paradigma, um novo modelo de civilização, em resumo, uma transformação revolucionária.”
― Michael Löwy, O que é ecossocialismo?

“Humanity has an evolutionary progression, and so far the universe has, to a certain extent, allowed this progress, but whether it will allow it in the future is unknown! Evolutionary progress needs to transform into revolutionary progress! Think about the first bicycle and then think about the bicycles of today; revolutionary progress means being able to foresee the 5th generation or 20th generation bicycle while making the first bicycle, and being able to make the first bicycle as a 5th or 20th generation bicycle!”
― Mehmet Murat ildan
