-- Errico Malatesta

We won the revolution, what we lost was the war.
-- Abel Paz

The liberal government of Spain could have rendered the fascist elements powerless long ago. Instead it compromised and dallied.
-- Buenaventura Durruti

Rest in peace, poor Mata! Someone who never knew you has sworn to avenge you. And the memory of your blood-drenched eyes will drive his dagger; the vision of your mutilated body will render his bomb more effective.
-- Bruno Filippi

You made us, man of evil, but we are free!

Instead of entrusting the defence of your interests to others, see to the matter by yourselves. Instead of trying to choose advisers that will guide you in future actions, do the thing yourselves, and do it now! Men of good will shall not have to look long in vain for the opportunity. To put on others' shoulders the responsibility of one's actions is cowardice.
-- Elisee Reclus

Not hat people, are you? Either of you?

— The Doctor, in “Frontios”
