Refuse to go to hell—the hell of war.
Refuse to stay in hell—the hell of capitalist industry.
Unite! For peace and freedom—unite!
Form, toilers, form!
Organize!
A solid front on the battlefield—of industry.
A solid front on the battlefield—of politics.
A suggestion: Let each one of a hundred thousand men and women patiently and repeatedly bear light to the brain of one new man or woman each month for two years, and teach each new man to become a teacher of other men and women. Get some good book, a book that burns, a book that kindles a passion for freedom and justice; and lend that book to a new person each month till the book is worn out.[116]
Light a lamp in your neighbor’s brain.
Strike a fire in your neighbor’s heart.
Revolutionize him.
Dare.
Today.

Conditions always express the will or lack of will of the majority.
