Quote by Nicolas Beuglet

“la première et la seule raison de la croyance n'est ni l'amour ni la joie ... C'est la peur. ... Sans la crainte du rien après la mort, aucune raison d'avoir la foi.”

“Dad...you did it? (Shocked but keeping voice down) You did it to the others? You sent out a hundred and twenty cracked engine-heads and let those boys die! How could you do that? How? (Voice rises with anger) Dad...Dad, you killed twenty-one men! You killed them, you murdered them. (Becomes more furious) Explain it to me. Explain to me how you do it? What did you do? (Pause) Explain it to me goddammit or I will tear you to pieces! I want to know what you did, now what did you do? You had a hundred and twenty cracked engine-heads, now what did you do? Why'd you ship them out in the first place? If you knew they were cracked, then why didn't you tell them?”

“Kapitalisme menghasilkan kontradiksi-kontradiksi, dan semua kontradiksi itu pada gilirannya meningkatkan tuntutan untuk kesetaraan politik oleh kelas non-elite dan koalisi kelas. Di mana kelas pekerja memberikan sebagian besar energi untuk tuntutan ini, reformasi demokrasi pun paling terkembang. Kelas menengah bersifat lebih ambivalen. Mereka akan menolak demokrasi jika itu berarti juga memberdayakan orang miskin, tetapi akan mendukungnya jika itu berarti mendapatkan keuntungan atas kelas borjuasi nasional, terutama menyangkut isu-isu daerah. Persis peran ambivalen inilah yang dimainkan kelas menengah Indonesia sejak kemerdekaan.”
