Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“Foreign behavior? What the fuck are you talking about? Foreign behavior? Have you read Things Fall Apart? Ifemulu asked, wishing she had not told Ranyinudo about Dike. She was angrier with Ranyinudo than she had ever been, yet she knew that Ranyinudo meant well, and had said what many other Nigerians would say, which was why she had not told anyone else about Dike's suicide attempt since she came back.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

C.L.R. James
“The cruelties of property and privilege are always more ferocious than the revenges of poverty and oppression. For the one aims at perpetuating resented injustice, the other is merely a momentary passion soon appeased.”
C.L.R. James, The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution

“The rich are only defeated when running for their lives.”

Stefano Benni
“Quei signore e signori e ragazzi e ragazze seduti, tutti avevano ragione. E parlandone, si rafforzavano in questa loro certezza. E la loro ragione era costruita sul dileggio, sulla rovina, sul disprezzo degli altri. E più parlavano, più la ragione cresceva e chiedeva il suo tributo di parole, di minacce, di gesti. E sempre più gli altri, quelli dalla parte del toro, diventavano lontani e miserabili. Ma guardando oltre la strada, nei bar di fronte, altra gente era seduta e anche loro avevano ragione. Una gigantesca, unica ragione divideva il mondo in quelli che l'avevano, cioè tutti, e gli altri, cioè tutti.”
Stefano Benni, Margherita Dolce Vita

“Racism, I maintain, was not simply a convention for ordering the relations of European to non-European peoples but has its genesis in the “internal” relations of European peoples.”
Cedric J. Robinson, Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition
