C.L.R. James
“The rich are only defeated when running for their lives.”
C.L.R. James, The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution

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

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
“When history is written as it ought to be written, it is the moderation and long patience of the masses at which men will wonder, not their ferocity.”
C.L.R. James, The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution

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
