“The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away. In this book we are concerned with how to create mass organizations to seize power and give it to the people; to realize the democratic dream of equality, justice, peace, cooperation, equal and full opportunities for education, full and useful employment, health, and the creation of those circumstances in which man can have the chance to live by values that give meaning to life.” PeopleMenGivingBookDreamValuesOpportunityRealizingJusticeChanceWrittenCreationCircumstancesEqualMassConcernedOrganizationDemocraticEmploymentRadicalLive ByCooperationMeaning LifeRules For Radicals Book:Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realistic Radicals Source: Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realistic Radicals
“If we have learned anything in the past ten years, it is that these lovely things about America were never lovely. We have been expansionist and aggressive and mean to other people from the beginning. And we've been aggressive and mean to people in this country, and we've allocated the wealth of this country in a very unjust way. We've never had justice in our courts for the poor people, for black people, for radicals. Now how can we boast that America is a very special place? It's not that special. It really isn't.” PeopleIfsWayYearsMeanHas BeensCountryAmericaPastBlackWealthJusticePoorSpecialTenCourtLovelyRadicalAggressiveBlack PeopleUnjustPoor PeopleBoastSpecial PlacesLovely Things Author:Howard Zinn
“It is my feeling that as we grow older we should become not less radical but more so. I do not, of course, mean this in any political-party sense, but rather in a willingness to struggle for those things in which we passionately believe. Social activism and the struggle for social justice are often thought of as the natural activities of the young but not of the middle-aged or the elderly. In fact, I don't think this was ever true.” ThinkingShouldBelieveMeanFactsFeelingsYoungPoliticalCoursesSocialGrowsNaturalJusticePartyStruggleMiddleActivitySocial JusticeAgingActivismRadicalWillingnessPolitical PartiesElderlyMiddle AgedSocial Activism Author:Margaret Laurence

“No one will give you change. You have to work for it. You have to earn it not by screaming, but by working hard, by believing in yourself, by proving yourself.

“Only a law-order which holds to the primacy of God's law can bring forth true freedom, freedom for justice, truth, and godly life. Freedom as an absolute is simply an assertion of man's "right" to be his own god; this means a radical denial of God's law-order. "Freedom" thus is another name for the claim by man to divinity and autonomy. It means that man becomes his own absolute.” MenMeanLawOrderNamesJusticeClaimsAbsolutesRadicalDenialDivinityGodlyAutonomyAssertionTrue FreedomPrimacyJustice TruthGodly Life Author:R.J. Rushdoony
