In Memory of Leon Trotsky. - ↑ “For obvious social reasons the Jews of eastern and Central Europe have, for the last half century, demonstrated exceptional intellectual dynamism (their role in the United States). The Nazi extermination of this rich and fertile human mass diminishes Europe’s vigor and influence.”

In the modern world, divided by social struggles, it has furnished big capitalists, able merchants, intellectuals of high quality, and a mass of socialists and revolutionaries whose contribution to society was essential.”

The Jewish Question. - ↑ “It seems to me that à propos of the Jews it is appropriate to use the term nation or people rather than race, because there are now no longer any pure races (as long as one doesn’t content oneself with large divisions of the human species into white, black, yellow and copper races).”
