Malcolm X
“I will never say that progress is being made.
If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress.
If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. The progress is healing the wound that's below, that the blow made. And they haven't even begun to pull the knife out, much less pull, heal the wound...

They won't even admit the knife is there.”
Malcolm X

Rafael Arráiz Lucca
“En todo caso, fue durante esta centuria de anunciación de la Modernidad occidental, cuando algunos autores se licenciaron para divagar, para pensar en voz alta, para ensayar respuestas, para aproximarse a un fenómeno desde distintos ángulos, o desde uno solo, e intentar iluminar sus contornos.”
Rafael Arráiz Lucca, La navaja de Ockham: Colombia, Venezuela y otros ensayos (Biblioteca Rafael Arráiz Lucca nº 12)

“Computers, as any programmer will tell you, are giant morons, not giant brains.”
Arthur Samuel

“(On Engels' critique of anti-authoritarianism)

“Nobody was talking about the use of revolutionary violence being authoritarianism. That's always been an invalid thing to point out. You know, is a slave rising up and overthrowing their master, is that "authoritarian"? Is a woman trying to escape her abusive husband or defending herself against her abusive husband, is that "authoritarian"?”
Anark

“The intellect is a chisel that you can use to tear away at the false stuff, but you're supposed to do it in the service of creating sculpture, you know? You're supposed to be bringing something out of whatever you're chiseling away at.

If you take that chisel and just knock it all the way down through, then you end up with nothing, and that's no fun.”
Alex O'Connor
