«Any blow against imperialism, no matter the ethnic and regional origins of the blow, is a victory for all anti-imperialistic elements in all the nationalities. The sum total of these blows no matter what their weight, size, scale, location in time and space makes the national heritage.» (p. 2)
«Imperialism is total: it has economic, political, military, cultural and psychological consequences for the people of the world today. It could even lead to holocaust.» (p. 2)
