Leila Khaled: The Palestinian liberation movement is a progressive national movement against the forces of aggression and imperialism. The link between the interests of imperialism and the continued existence of Israel will make our war against the latter basically a war against imperialism. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3214
Charles de Gaulle: Stalin had tremendous authority and not only in Russia. He knew how not to panic when he lost and not to enjoy victories. And he has more victories than defeats. Stalin's Russia is not the old Russia that perished with the monarchy. But a Stalinist state without successors worthy of Stalin is doomed. Stalin did not become a thing of the past - he disappeared into the future. And Khrushchev wants to oppose himself literally in everything to Stalin and the Stalinist style. This deliberation is very often to the detriment of Khrushchev and the authority of the USSR. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3215
Haile Selassie I: My meetings with Soviet leaders after Stalin convince him that there are no worthy successors in the country's leadership. Due to many reasons, the tough but effective system of governing the country, implemented under Stalin, is weakening after him. Becomes more demonstrative than real. And in my opinion, there is no continuity in the managerial, economic and other actions of Soviet leaders after Stalin. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3216
Mao Zedong: In his last years of his life, fake “comrades-in-arms” did not allow Stalin to nominate young cadres to leading positions. We took into account this tragic lesson, which ended with Stalin's quick “departure” and the rise to power of the revisionists-degenerates. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3217
Mahatma Gandhi: Remember that all through history, there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they seem invincible. But in the end, they always fall. Always. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3218
Karl Marx: The worker becomes all the poorer the more wealth he produces, the more his production increases in power and size. The worker becomes an ever cheaper commodity the more commodities he creates. The devaluation of the world of men is in direct proportion to the increasing value of the world of things. Labor produces not only commodities; it produces itself and the worker as a commodity – and this at the same rate at which it produces commodities in general. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3219
Sherko Bekas: The tide said to the fisherman: There are many reasons why my waves are in a rage. The most important is that I am for the freedom of the fish and against the net. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3221
Karl Marx: Trade and industry ought to he protected, but the debatable point is precisely whether protective tariffs do in reality protect trade and industry. We regard such a system much more as the organisation of a state of war in time of peace, a state of war which, aimed in the first place against foreign countries, necessarily turns in its implementation against the country which organises it. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3222
