Never Let A Crisis Go To Waste

Make The Enemy Live Up To Its Own Book Of Rules.

The Democratic Ideal Springs From The Ideas Of Liberty, Equality, Majority Rule Through Free Elections, Protection Of The Rights Of Minorities, And Freedom To Subscribe To Multiple Loyalties In Matters Of Religion, Economics, And Politics Rather Than To A Total Loyalty To The State. The Spirit Of Democracy Is The Idea Of Importance And Worth In The Individual, And Faith In The Kind Of World Where The Individual Can Achieve As Much Of His Potential As Possible.

True Revolutionaries Do Not Flaunt Their Radicalism. They Cut Their Hair, Put On Suits And Infiltrate The System From Within.

Whenever Possible, Go Outside The Expertise Of The Enemy.

Men Don't Like To Step Abruptly Out Of The Security Of Familiar Experience; They Need A Bridge To Cross From Their Own Experience To A New Way. A Revolutionary Organizer Must Shake Up The Prevailing Patterns Of Their Lives - Agitate, Create Disenchantment And Discontent With The Current Values, To Produce, If Not A Passion For Change, At Least A Passive, Affirmative, Non-challenging Climate.
