    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)

    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    Let the ruling classes tremble at a communist revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Workingmen of all countries, unite!
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
