Famous quotes containing the words national, liberation and/or army:

    “The Federated Republic of Europe—the United States of Europe—that is what must be. National autonomy no longer suffices. Economic evolution demands the abolition of national frontiers. If Europe is to remain split into national groups, then Imperialism will recommence its work. Only a Federated Republic of Europe can give peace to the world.”
    —Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    “Madness need not be all breakdown. It may also be break-through. It is potential liberation and renewal as well as enslavement and existential death.”
    —R.D. (Ronald David)

    “An army without culture is a dull-witted army, and a dull-witted army cannot defeat the enemy.”
    —Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
