The religious institutions have helped to foster these privileges and class divisions. If workers in general, by educating themselves, are not able to destroy the privileges of caste, race, hierarchy, and untold nonsense that harm us as human beings, then revolution will do it.

Todos los que juzgan una idea llevada á la práctica, utópica, son obstáculos, y los obstáculos deben empujarse á un lado. Son los que entorpecen las grandes iniciativas, las obras de bien. Y aun así, se llaman patriotas y padres de la patria. ¿Qué concepto de la patria tendrán? Un concepto egoista, que empieza en ellos y termina en ellos. Ellos lo son todo.
