I Am Not A Capitalist Soldier; I Am A Proletarian Revolutionist. I Do Not Belong To The Regular Army Of The Plutocracy, But To The Irregular Army Of The People. I Refuse To Obey Any Command To Fight From The Ruling Class, But I Will Not Wait To Be Commanded To Fight For The Working Class. I Am Opposed To Every War But One; I Am For That War With Heart And Soul, And That Is The World-wide War Of Social Revolution. In That War I Am Prepared To Fight In Any Way The Ruling Class May Make Necessary, Even To The Barricades.

Solidarity Is Not A Matter Of Sentiment But A Fact, Cold And Impassive As The Granite Foundations Of A Skyscraper. If The Basic Elements, Identity Of Interest, Clarity Of Vision, Honesty Of Intent, And Oneness Of Purpose, Or Any Of These Is Lacking, All Sentimental Pleas For Solidarity, And All Other Efforts To Achieve It Will Be Barren Of Results.

If It Had Not Been For The Discontent Of A Few Fellows Who Had Not Been Satisfied With Their Conditions, You Would Still Be Living In Caves. Intelligent Discontent Is The Mainspring Of Civilization. Progress Is Born Of Agitation. It Is Agitation Or Stagnation.
