Georges Staquet: El Albañil
Quotes
-
El Albañil : I don't like doing things unless I know what they're for. I don't trust, on principle.
Xavi : What are you afraid of? That I'm an agent?
El Albañil : Even if you were, the police know all about me. I've been in and out of jail for years. No, I'm only afraid of getting into something wrong.
Xavi : It can't be wrong if it's against the Franco regime.
El Albañil : That's what you say. This thing you're doing, kidnapping industrialists, planting bombs, some Civil Guard killed. These are pointless actions.
Xavi : What does the good fight mean to you then?
El Albañil : The struggle's different for us. It's a day to day business. It's organization, getting more and more support. It's trying to change people's minds, little by little, day by day. It's easy to have contempt for shitty work like that.
Xavi : I think you have comtempt for us.
El Albañil : No. Thing is, I believe in collective action, by and for the maximum number of people possible.
Xavi : Our action is for everyone. You can't imagine how useful it will be.
El Albañil : Well, what can I say? Good luck.
Xavi : Known who the place is for? Carrero Blanco.
El Albañil : Holy shit! And you're telling this to someone you don't know?
Xavi : If my comrades found out, they'd spit in my face, then kill me, and they'd be right.
