Our democracy is not perfect. But it's better than the bloody dictatorships. Capitalism is unjust. But it's not criminal like Stalinism. We let millions of Africans die of AIDS, but we don't make racist nationalist declarations like Milosevic. We kill Iraqis with our airplanes, but we don't cut their throats with machetes like they do in Rwanda, etc.

All resistance is a rupture with what is. And every rupture begins, for those engaged in it, through a rupture with oneself.

I would say, if you like, that the party is like an out-moded mathematics.. That is to say, the mathematics of Euclid. We need to invent a non-Euclidian mathematics with respect to political discipline.
