• What will happen once the authentic mass man takes over, we do not know yet, although it may be a fair guess that he will have more in common with the meticulous, calculated correctness of Himmler than with the hysterical fanaticism of Hitler, will more resemble the stubborn dullness of Molotov than the sensual vindictive cruelty of Stalin.

If suddenly it's the Arab in your backyard , you can't be worrying about the People's Republic of China and if one day the ChiComs show up at your front door with an eviction notice in one hand and a Molotov cocktail in the other, then the last thing you're going do is look over his shoulder for a walking corpse.

• Un alborotador con un cóctel molotov en las manos no lucha por los derechos civiles, como tampoco lo hace un miembro del Ku Klux Klan con una sábana a la espalda y una máscara en la cara. Ambos son más o menos lo que la ley declara: infractores de la ley, destructores de los derechos y libertades constitucionales y, en última instancia, destructores de una América libre.

• The Daily Telegraph reported on April 9, 1937: 'Since M. Litvinoff ousted Chicherin, no Russian has ever held a high post in the Commissariat for Foreign Affairs.' It seems that the Daily Telegraph was unaware that Chicherin's mother was a Jewess. The Russian Molotov, who became Foreign Minister later, has a Jewish wife, and one of his two assistants is the Jew, Lozovsky. It was the last-named who renewed the treaty with Japan in 1942, by which the Kamchatka fisheries provided the Japanese with an essential part of their food supplies.

• The truth then is, that the Russian Comintern is still confessedly engaged in endeavoring to foment war in order to facilitate revolution, and that one of its chief organizers, Lozovsky, has been installed as principal adviser to Molotov...A few months ago he wrote in the French publication, L Vie Ouvriere...that his chief aim in life is the overthrow of the existing order in the great Democracies.

• (I)t is simply wrong to confuse cowardice with appeasement. Cowardice is a failing of character. Appeasement is a failure of policy. Stalin appeased Hitler when he signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Stalin was an evil character, to be sure. But cowardice really isn't the first word that comes to mind when thinking of Stalin ' that word is “sexy.” I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

• No puedo hacerme creer que Dios quería que odiara. Estoy cansado de la violencia, he visto demasiada. He visto demasiado odio en las caras de demasiados sheriffs del Sur. Y no voy a dejar que mi opresor me dicte qué método debo usar. Nuestros opresores han usado la violencia. Nuestros opresores han usado el odio. Nuestros opresores han usado rifles y pistolas. No voy a rebajarme a su nivel. Quiero elevarme a un nivel superior. Tenemos un poder que no se encuentra en los cócteles molotov.
