“The greenhouse crisis is the bill coming due for the Industrial Revolution. It's not an accident. It's the logical outcome of our world view - the idea that we can control the forces of nature, that we can have short-term expedient gains without paying for them, that there are no limits to exploitation of the environment, that we can produce and consume faster than nature's ability to replenish.” WorldIdeasForceTermAbilityViewsEnvironmentProduceRevolutionLimitsGainsCrisisBillsDuesAccidentsFasterOutcomesGlobal WarmingLogicalOur WorldExploitationShort TermGreenhousesWorld ViewIndustrial RevolutionForces Of Nature Author:Jeremy Rifkin
“You don't have a revolution in which you love your enemy, and you don't have a revolution in which you are begging the system of exploitation to integrate you into it. Revolutions overturn systems. Revolutions destroy systems.” EnemyLove YouRevolutionExploitationBeggingIntegratingLove Your Enemies Author:Malcolm X
“The fortunes of the African revolution are closely linked with the world-wide struggle against imperialism. It does not matter where the battle erupts, be it in Africa, Asia or Latin America, the master-mind and master-hand at work are the same. The oppressed and exploited people are striving for their freedom against exploitation and suppression. Ghana must not, Ghana cannot be neutral in the struggle of the oppressed against the oppressor.” PeopleWorldMindDoeMatterHandsAmericaStruggleMastersRevolutionBattleFortuneStriveWideLatinExploitationOppressedAsiaLinkedImperialismLatin AmericaOppressorsSuppressionGhana Author:Kwame Nkrumah
“Marxism teaches that exploitation and degradation somehow produce resistance and revolution. It's been hard to say why. What I've learned from women's experience with sexuality is that exploitation and degradation produce grateful complicity in exchange for survival. They produce self-loathing to the point of extinction of self, and it is respect for self that makes resistance conceivable.” SelfHardTeachProduceRevolutionSurvivalGratefulSexualityResistanceI've LearnedExploitationExtinctionMarxismDegradationLoathingSelf LoathingComplicity Book:Feminism Unmodified: Discourses on Life and Law Source: Feminism Unmodified: Discourses on Life and Law
“You will have to go deep into man. From where comes this violence? From where comes this exploitation? From where come all these ego-trips? From where? They all come from unconsciousness. Man lives asleep, man lives mechanically. That mechanism has to be broken, man has to be re-done. That is the religious revolution that has not been tried.” MenDoneReligiousViolenceBrokenRevolutionEgoMechanismExploitationUnconsciousnessEgo TripBroken Man Book:From R to Z Source: From R to Z
