In Remembrance of Rosa Luxemburg

Porém, apesar de todos os seus erros, Rosa foi e permanece sendo uma águia. E não apenas os comunistas de todo o mundo irão velar pela sua memória, porém sua biografia e suas obras completas (a publicação das quais está sendo incomensuravelmente retardada pelos comunistas alemães que podem apenas ser em parte desculpados por conta das tremendas perdas que estão sofrendo em sua severa luta) servirão como úteis manuais para o treinamento de muitas gerações de comunistas em todo o mundo.
