The country has undergone a profound social upheaval, the greatest the proletariat has ever known.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
History is the only true teacher, the revolution the best school for the proletariat.
This republic represents the greatest basis for that universal socialist order, the creation of which is at the present time the historic task of the International Proletariat.
The controversies between the proletariat and the middle class had to be smoothed out and bridged over by each getting to know and understand the other.
Perhaps, when we examine the causes of many social changes and political upheavals, we will find the marks of its presence and its principal ideals.
The more that social democracy develops, grows, and becomes stronger, the more the enlightened masses of workers will take their own destinies, the leadership of their movement, and the determination of its direction into their own hands.
Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.
We have become stronger economically; we have been successfully resolving the social problems, raising the level of living - the standards of living - of the population.
A strong, educated middle class is what made America the greatest country in the world.
In my fifty years of experience and memory, I have seen the most amazing increase in the standard of living of a people ever achieved anywhere in the world. This is why I am so sure that our system of free competition and industrial development is sound and must be preserved.
Admiration of the proletariat, like that of dams, power stations, and aeroplanes, is part of the ideology of the machine age.
