Don't Confuse These Quotes for the Moon


"Everything has been figured out, except how to live."
--Jean-Paul Sartre

"Those who dance are considered insane by those who can't hear the music."
-- George Carlin

"Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth."
-- Albert Einstein

"If I am what I have and if I lose what I have who then am I?"
--Erich Fromm

"When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a Communist."
--Dom Hélder Pessoa Câmara

"Déjenme decirles, a riesgo de parecer ridículo, que el revolucionario verdadero está guiado por grandes sentimientos de amor."

"Sean capaces siempre de sentir, en lo más hondo, cualquier injusticia realizada contra cualquiera, en cualquier parte del mundo. Es la cualidad más linda del revolucionario."

-- Ernesto "Che" Guevara

"History calls those men the greatest who have ennobled themselves by working for the common good; experience acclaims as happiest the man who has made the greatest number of people happy."

"Morality, religion, metaphysics, all the rest of ideology and their corresponding forms of consciousness, thus no longer retain the semblance of independence. They have no history, no development; but men, developing their material production and their material intercourse, alter, along with this their real existence, their thinking and the products of their thinking."

"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it."

"History does nothing, it ‘possesses no immense wealth’, it ‘wages no battles’. It is man, real, living man who does all that, who possesses and fights; ‘history’ is not, as it were, a person apart, using man as a means to achieve its own aims; history is nothing but the activity of man pursuing his aims."

"The weapon of criticism cannot, of course, replace criticism of the weapon, material force must be overthrown by material force; but theory also becomes a material force as soon as it has gripped the masses. Theory is capable of gripping the masses as soon as it demonstrates ad hominem, and it demonstrates ad hominem as soon as it becomes radical. To be radical is to grasp the root of the matter. But, for man, the root is man himself."

--Karl Marx
