A cool quote by some guy; don't hate him for being a Frenchie

This quote, from some guy named Francois Perroux, was taken from the book One-Dimensional Man by Herbert Marcuse. Marcuse quotes Perroux in French, and then has an English translation in a footnote (don't know who did the translation). The Perroux quote was taken by Marcuse out of Perroux's book La Coexistence pacifique; it says loc. cit. vol. III, p. 631:

"They believe they are dying for the Class, they die for the Party boys. They believe they are dying for the Fatherland, they die for the Industrialists. They believe they are dying for the freedom of the Person, they die for the Freedom of the dividends. They believe they are dying by orders of a State, they die for the money which holds the State. They believe they are dying for a nation, they die for the bandits that gag it ..."

I don't know if i'm for or against the Iraq war and all that, but this quote seems to be just generally to think about for all sorts of situations. The Iraqi insurgents and other terrorists should remember this too -- JH.
