Ernesto Che Guevara
“If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine.”
Ernesto Che Guevara

Tadeusz Borowski
“You know how much I used to like Plato. Today I realize he lied. For the things of this world are not a reflection of the ideal, but a product of human sweat, blood and hard labour. It is we who built the pyramids, hewed the marble for the temples and the rocks for the imperial roads, we who pulled the oars in the galleys and dragged wooden ploughs, while they wrote dialogues and dramas, rationalized their intrigues by appeals in the name of the Fatherland, made wars over boundaries and democracies. We were filthy and died real deaths. They were 'aesthetic' and carried on subtle debates.
There can be no beauty if it is paid for by human injustice, nor truth that passes over injustice in silence, nor moral virtue that condones it.”
Tadeusz Borowski, This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen

Mao Zedong
“To read too many books is harmful.”
Mao Zedong

Thomas Bernhard
“Instead of committing suicide, people go to work.”
Thomas Bernhard, Correction

Karl Marx
“I am nothing but I must be everything.”
Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right
