700 Quotes About Activism


  • Author Robert Graves
  • Quote

    Poets can't march in protest or do that sort of thing. I feel that's against the rules, and pointless. If mankind wants a great big final bang, that's what it'll get. One should never protest against anything unless it's going to have an effect. None of those marches do. One should either be silent or go straight to the top.

    No movement can succeed if it is populated by the half-hearted, the weak-willed, those who can always find other things to do with their time, whose priority is always themselves. These are the Ignavi. Go and be a liability to someone else. Hyperianism wants the finest, not the worst. If you can’t be serious about committing to something, don’t bother. Just go back to bed and let the world pass you by.
