There was an amazing long and heavy quote from Durutti someone posted BITD if anyone remembers that?
the famous one of his is
""We have always lived in slums and holes in the wall. We will know how to accommodate ourselves for a while. For, you must not forget, we also know how to build. It is we the workers who built these palaces and cities, here in Spain and in America, and everywhere.
"We, the workers, can build others to take their place, and better ones! We are not in the least afraid of ruins. We are going to inherit the earth, there is not the slightest doubt about that. The bourgeoisie might blast and ruin its own world before it leaves the stage of history. We carry a new world, here, in our hearts. That world is growing this minute."
I like "we have a world of pleasures to win, and nothing to lose but boredom" by raoul vaneigem. I'm sure I'll think of some others later.
In v4 of the site we may have these randomly displayed with links to their historical background, people who said them, etc.
that Durutti one is fucking amazing 8) 
I quite like the first line of Adam Smith's 'Wealth of Nations'; (from memory) "labour is the fund from which all the wealth of a nation is purchased" - just to throw at pro-capitalists who've never read him and assume i'm quoting Marx 
"If one identifies proletarian with factory worker (or even worse: with manual labourer), or with the poor, then one cannot see what is subversive in the proletarian condition. The proletariat is the negation of this society. It is not the collection of the poor, but of those who are desperate, those who have no reserves (les sans-réserves in French, or senza riserve in Italian), who have nothing to lose but their chains; those who are nothing, have nothing, and cannot liberate themselves without destroying the whole social order. The proletariat is the dissolution of present society, because this society deprives it of nearly all its positive aspects. Thus the proletariat is also its own destruction. All theories (either bourgeois, fascist, stalinist, left-wing or "gauchistes") which in any way glorify and praise the proletariat as it is and claim for it the positive role of defending values and regenerating society, are counter-revolutionary. Worship of the proletariat has become one of the most efficient and dangerous weapons of capital. Most proles are low paid, and a lot work in production, yet their emergence as the proletariat derives not from being low paid producers, but from being "cut off", alienated, with no control either over their lives or the meaning of what they have to do to earn a living." of course. 8)

That mine.
But also.
"There is a spectre haunting europe, the spectre of communism."
Here's one from Malatesta's Anarchy (1891):
"When this opinion is changed, and the public are convinced that government is not necessary, but extremely harmful, the word "anarchy," precisely because it signifies "without government," will become equal to saying "natural order, harmony of needs and interests of all, complete liberty with complete solidarity."

Here's one for a hot day: "The more I make love the more I want to make the revolution; the more I make the revolution the more I want to make love."
I also like (& have the t-shirt) Zapata's "It's better to die on your feet than live on your knees!"
"You may not be interested in the dialectic but the dialectic is interested in you" is another favourite of mine but I prefer not to discuss it's rather distasteful origins.
Thats the spirit Jef! I like the quote - no idea where tis from tho..(although I feel it COULD be from a work of fiction. 
..which is cool).
I will repeat again the Roosevelt quote I used in libcommunity once:
"Do what you can.
With what you have.
Where you are."
And a related one - don't know where from but I find it useful:
"Most people overestimate what can be achieved in the short term. And underestimate what can be achieved in the long term."
As J and I said in the above mentioned thread - long slow sure work....gets there in the end..

"Awake, arise or be forever fallen!"
Satan in Paradise Lost when all the fallen angels are lying around in hell with sore heads having just been whupped by Jesus. For some reason it gets me motivated to do stuff when I can't be arsed, I kept saying it the other night when I was so drunk my girlfriend was carrying me home, I kept almost collapsing then saying that and getting a new burst of energy. I must've been the geekiest drunk in town 8)
Hi guys
Meant to start this thread eons ago..only just remembered to do so.
When you are feeling down ,what slogan or quote enables you to keep going? It could be cheerful or cynical, cool or un-cool, from a pc or non-pc source - just whatever you find uplifting, inspirational amusing or helpful in some way. There was an amazing long and heavy quote from Durutti someone posted BITD if anyone remembers that?
I will have loads but to get the ball rolling, just to repeat the one I recently posted in Thought from Wiesel:
"Always Take Sides. Silence Favours The Oppressor".
Look forward to hearing your responses.
Love
