The royalty take and take and it never seems to be enough for them. They steal girls to make their babies, boys to protect them, or seduce them, or serve them. But we are not objects. We are not the latest fashion or the most expensive prize. We are people. And I'm going to help make them see that.

the Poor Men of Lyons,
Peasants Quotes : pic 000979498

Peasants Quotes : pic 001032638
Here are thieves and robbers and tribunals: and they that are called tyrants, who deem that they have after a fashion power over us, because of the miserable body and what appertains to it. Let us show them that they have power over none.

And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
Peasants Quotes : pic 000106504

Peasants Quotes : pic 001500429

their gradual and voluntary transition to socialism.

Peasants Quotes : pic 000098081
Oh! If those selfish men, who are the cause of all one's misery, only knew what their poor slaves go through! What suffering, what humiliation to the delicate feelings of a poor woman, above all a young one, especially with those nasty doctors.
