Struggle

Famous quotes containing the word struggle:

    “Say not the struggle nought availeth,
    The labour and the wounds are vain,
    The enemy faints not, nor faileth,
    And as things have been they remain.”
    —Arthur Hugh Clough (1819–1861)

    “Against boredom even the gods struggle in vain.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “This socialism will develop in all its phases until it reaches its own extremes and absurdities. Then once again a cry of denial will break from the titanic chest of the revolutionary minority and again a mortal struggle will begin, in which socialism will play the role of contemporary conservatism and will be overwhelmed in the subsequent revolution, as yet unknown to us.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
