Subcomandante Marcos (Rafael Sebastián Guillén Vicente) Quotes
Toward the end of the Cold War, capitalism created a military horror: the neutron bomb, a weapon that destroys life while leaving buildings intact. During the Fourth World War, however, a new wonder has been discovered: the financial bomb. Unlike those dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, this new bomb not only destroys the polis (here, the nation), imposing death, terror, and misery on those who live there, but also transforms its target into just another piece in the puzzle of economic globalization.

Revolutions are usually a matter of people picking up the power of a state in disintegration, a government that has lost the will to enforce its laws.
