When you clashed with the policemen at Valle Giulia, I
sympathised for them. Because policemen are children of the poor.
Pier Paolo Pasolini

It’s a moment I shall never forget. Suddenly, spontaneously, barricades were being thrown up in the
streets. People were piling up the cobblestones because they wanted, many for the first time, to throw
themselves into a collective, spontaneous activity. People were releasing all their repressed feelings,
expressing them in a festive spirit. Thousands felt the need to communicate with each other, to love one
another. That night has made me forever optimistic about history. Having lived through it, I can’t ever say,
‘It will never happen’.
Daniel Cohn-Bendit
