  • The end is not far away
  • The public interest must prevail over the interest individual, the fair sharing of the wealth created by the world of work override the power of  money.
  • “The press freedom, its  honor and independence againt the power of the State, the power of money and foreign influences.” That is what turns further orders on the press in 1944. Yet that is what is now in danger. The Resistance was calling for “an effective opportunity for all French children to benefit from the most developed education”, without discrimination, yet the reforms proposed in 2008 go against this project. Young teachers, which actions I support, were up to refuse to apply them and they saw their wages cut as a punishment. They were outraged, have “disobeyed” and found these reforms too far from the ideal of the republican school, too much in the service of Page 3 the money society and not enough developing the creative and critical thinking. It is just the base of the social conquests of the Resistance which is now in question (2)

  • Proust
  • Walter Benjamin
  • I tell young people: Look for a bit, you’ll find.
  • The worst attitude is indifference, saying “I can not do anything, I’m doing my job.
  • I had the chance after Liberation of being involved in drafting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations, 10 December 1948 in Paris at the Palais de Chaillot.
  • René Cassin was  the one whom we owe the term “universal rights Page 7 and not” international “as suggested by our Anglo-Saxon friends.
  • It is obvious that to be effective today, we must act in a network, take advantage of all means of modern communication.
  • Alas, history gives little examples of people who learn from their own history.
  • Guillaume Apollinaire: “That hope is violent ” not politics
