Slavoj Žižek
True universalists are not those who preach global tolerance of differences and all-encompassing unity, but those who engage in a passionate struggle for the assertion of the Truth which compels them.
Slavoj Žižek
With Lenin it was always a substantial commitment. I always have a certain admiration for people who are aware that somebody has to do the job.
