“Bila kaum muda yang telah belajar di sekolah menganggap dirinya terlalu tinggi dan pintar untuk melebur dengan masyarakat yang bekerja dengan cangkul dan hanya memiliki cita-cita yang sederhana, maka lebih baik pendidikan itu tidak diberikan sama sekali.��

Have you ever heard the quote above? It was Tan Malaka's. And the book I'm currently reading right here is a 462-page full of his critical, if not brilliant, way of thinking and thought-provoking ideas.

Reading his works (especially this one) has convinced me in a way which Ann Leckie exactly phrased it on her book, Ancillary Justice. That, “Thoughts are ephemeral, they evaporate in the moment they occur, unless they are given action and material form. Wishes and intentions, the same. Meaningless, unless they impel you to one choice or another, some deed or course of action, however insignificant. Thoughts that lead to action can be dangerous. Thoughts that do not, mean less than nothing.��
