Quotes by Clara Zetkin  (?)

“We must grapple with [the] national ideology [of fascism] explicitly. We still hold to the words "the proletarian has no fatherland," because everything that could make a fatherland into a fatherland is extracted by capitalist exploitation, up to and including the very light of the sun. In spite of this, the proletariat is connected to the material and cultural wealth which is the product of many generations, and which it alone can transfer to coming generations. That is why the proletariat will create its fatherland through its own efforts, by constructing its government and constituting itself as a nation.”
Clara Zetkin, Fighting Fascism: How to Struggle and How to Win

“Fascism is the punishment inflicted on the proletariat for not having continued the revolution begun in Russia.”
Clara Zetkin

“When a proletarian then exclaims: “My wife!” he will add mentally, “Comrade of my ideals, companion of my battles, mother of my children for future battles.”
Clara Zetkin, Only in Conjunction With the Proletarian Woman Will Socialism Be Victorious
