David Horowitz frases e citações

“A publicação do Relatório Khrushchev foi provavelmente o maior golpe contra o Império Soviético durante a Guerra Fria. Quando meus pais e seus amigos abriram de manhã o Times e leram seu texto, seu mundo entrou em colapso - e junto com ele sua vontade de lutar. Se o documento era verdade, quase tudo o que tinham dito e acreditado era falso. Sua missão secreta os tinha levado a águas tão profundas que sua maré os cobriu, levando consigo o sentido de suas vidas.”

The publication of the Khrushchev Report was probably the greatest blow struck against the Soviet Empire during the Cold War. When my parents and their friends opened the morning Times and read its text, their world collapsed—and along with it their will to struggle. If the document was true, almost everything they had said and believed was false. Their secret mission had led them into waters so deep that its tide had overwhelmed them, taking with it the very meaning of their lives

“A libertação não é mais, e não pode mais ser, apenas uma preocupação nacional. A dimensão da luta, como Lenine e os bolcheviques tão claramente viram, é internacional: seu caminho é a revolução socialista.”

Liberation is no longer, and can be no longer, merely a national concern. The dimension of the struggle, as Lenin and the Bolsheviks so clearly saw, is international: its road is the socialist revolution.
