Naomi Klein
“Leon also explained how the Nazi Party, having witnessed the successful workers’ revolution in Russia, and seeing communism gaining political power in Germany, set out to deliberately weaken the importance of class in the minds of German workers. This was done by replacing class solidarity with racial solidarity, supplanting the common interests shared by all workers with the pleasures and rewards that flowed from belonging to the Aryan race, a bond that claimed to unite the poorest Christian workers with the wealthiest industrialists.”
Naomi Klein, Doppelganger: a Trip into the Mirror World

Edwin A. Abbott
“for all the higher classes are well aware that these rare phenomena, while they do little or nothing to vulgarize their own privileges, serve as almost useful barrier against revolution from below.”
Edwin A. Abbott, Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions

Ayn Rand
“I understood that centuries of chains and lashes will not kill the spirit of man nor the sense of truth within him.”
Ayn Rand, Anthem

Margarita Barresi
“Enraged, Marco paced back and forth, gripping the newspaper in his fist. What do these animals hope to accomplish with senseless violence? We have enough suffering on this island. Do we have to kill each other, too?”
Margarita Barresi, A Delicate Marriage
