The Romance of American Communism | 
“‘you think making a revolution is all agony and ecstasy? it‘s not, it‘s mostly drudgery. but what keeps you going is that 20 times a week something would happen — outside in that lousy capitalist world or inside among your comrades — and you‘d *remember*. the world was all around you *all the time*. that was the tremendous thing about those times. the sense of *history* you lived with daily. the sense of remaking the world.‘” — selma gardinsky
