"Le militant nationaliste qui avait fui la ville, ulcéré par les manoeuvres démagogiques et réformistes des dirigeants, déçu par la « politique », découvre dans la praxis concrète une nouvelle politique qui ne ressemble plus du tout à l'ancienne. Cette politique est une politique de responsables, de dirigeants insérés dans l'histoire qui assument avec leurs muscles et avec leurs cerveaux la direction de la lutte de libération. Cette politique et nationale, révolutionnaire, sociale."

The nationalist militant who had fled from the town in disgust at the demagogic and reformist maneuvers of the leaders there, disappointed by political life, discovers in real action a new form of political activity which in no way resembles the old. These politics are the politics of leaders and organizers living inside history who take the lead with their brains and their muscles in the fight for freedom. These politics are national, revolutionary, and social. — p. 147
