In the midst of a pronumciamento that was otherwise annoying, I found this gem of a quote: “Without an awakened, conscious people on the move revolution is impossible. There are no Messiahs, no leader which could lead a revolutionary process, but only the people which is the conditio sine qua non of the revolutionary process. […] The people are the tide but the tide does not stay high forever. Like the sea, the people rise and fall. If we disappoint it, if we do not help it to organise itself, if the people do not develop a conscious historical orientation-- we are also lost.” (Hugo Chávez, April 19, 1999) -- Macdonald Stainsby http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/rad-green In the contradiction lies the hope --Brecht. _______________________________________________ Rad-Green mailing list [email protected] To change your options or unsubscribe go to: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/rad-green
