• Antiguamente, los hombres se vendían al Diablo para adquirir poderes mágicos. Hoy en día adquieren esos poderes de la ciencia, y se ven obligados a convertirse en demonios. No hay esperanza para el mundo a menos que el poder pueda ser domado, y puesto al servicio, no de este o aquel grupo de tiranos fanáticos, sino de toda la raza humana, blanca y amarilla y negra, fascista y comunista y demócrata; porque la ciencia ha hecho inevitable que todos deban vivir o todos deban morir.

• En mi opinión, Jan Masaryk era un completo corrupto, que se liquidó a sí mismo porque vio por fin adónde le habían llevado su cobardía moral y su "Playboyería" ideológica. Recuerdo vívidamente cuando le visité en Washington, gordo, un poco tenso, entrando en la habitación con aspecto de mayordomo desvencijado con su amo, el pequeño comunista Clementis, y diciendo en voz alta: "¿Alguien ha visto un Telón de Acero? Yo no'. Pues ahora sí.

• La corrección de cualquiera de nuestras políticas siempre tiene que ser probada y siempre está siendo probada por las propias masas. Nosotros mismos examinamos constantemente nuestras propias decisiones y políticas. Corregimos nuestros errores siempre que los encontramos. Sacamos conclusiones de todas las experiencias positivas y negativas y las aplicamos lo más ampliamente posible. De este modo, las relaciones entre el partido comunista y las masas populares mejoran constantemente.

• I know that the Communists are atheistic and godless, but I don't think that that's what's primarily the matter with them. What's primarily the matter with them is that they worship a false god. That's much more dangerous than when people don't believe anything; they may be confused, they may not have a sense of the meaning of life, but they're not dangerous.

• The enormous dynamic and creative, as well as destructive energy of capitalism... is written up with more praise and more respect by Marx and Engels in the 1848 Communist Manifesto than probably by anyone since. I don't think anyone has ever said so precisely and with such awed admiration how great capitalism is, how inventive, how innovative, how dynamic, how much force of creativity it unleashes.

• The American people were, in the beginning, Revolutionaries and Tories. The American people ever since have been Revolutionaries and Tories. They have been Revolutionaries and Tories regardless of the labels of the past and present. Regardless of whether they were Federalists, Democrat-Republicans, Whigs, Know-Nothings, Free Soilers, Unionists or Confederates, Populists, Republicans, Democrats, Socialists, Communists, or Progressives. They have been and are profiteers and patriots. They have been and are conservatives, liberals, and radicals.

• The most important quote about poetry and politics that I know is from a different situationist, Guy Debord. He was locked in a debate with the French Surrealists, many of whom by the 40s and 50s were part of the French communist party apparatus. Many Surrealists eventually argued for instrumentalizing art for political ends. Debord countered, "I don't want to put poetry in the service of revolution. I want to put revolution in the service of poetry".

• Some tell me Preach the pure gospel! This reminds me that the Communist secret police also told me to preach Christ, but not to mention communism. Is it really so, that those who are for what is called a pure gospel are inspired by the same spirit as those of the Communist secret police?

• I defy my honored opponents to give me the name of a single man imprisoned in the United States, Great Britain, or West Germany for being an atheist. But in former communist countries, millions of our Christian brothers and sisters in faith have passed through jails or been killed. Who has fought for freedom and obtained it - atheists or Christians?
