“There is a grand union beyond nationalism which serves all people, and which is rooted in what is real, versus what has been created or produced.”

“The annual labour of every nation is the fund which originally supplies it with all the necessaries and conveniencies of life which it annually consumes, and which consist always either in the immediate produce of that labour, or in what is purchased with that produce from other nations.”

“According, therefore, as this produce, or what is purchased with it, bears a greater or smaller proportion to the number of those who are to consume it, the nation will be better or worse supplied with all the necessaries and conveniencies for which it has occasion.”

“The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks.”

“For it is the young tree grown out of the old root which shall illuminate what the old tree has been in its wonders.”

“What is poetry which does not save nations or people?”
