Quote by Gramsci, Antonio

"The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear."

"I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will."

"One of the most important things to do in the world is to unmask ideology as ideology."

"The intellectuals are the dominant group's deputies in the exercise of subaltern functions."

"The pen is mightier than the sword."

"Literature opens the mind to new worlds"

"The interesting thing about books is that they're made of words."

"Literature captures the essence of what it means to be human."
