In periods of speedy progress , it seems , stubborn reactionaries at least enjoy a certain scarcity value .

在快速进步的社会时期，看起来，顽固的反动派至少享有了某种稀缺的价值。

In the interview , he uttered one of his iconic sayings : " all reactionaries are paper tigers . "

在那次采访中，他说出了他标志性的语录之一：“一切反动派都是纸老虎。”

But he nevertheless rejects the reactionaries who dismiss modernism : " for their impulse is not only to crush every new talent as it appears but to castrate the past as well . "

然而他拒绝了那些驱散现代主义的反动派：“他们的冲动不只是像表面上那样摧毁新才华，而同样阉割了过去。”

He urged the russian people to defend their hard-won democracy . In effect he was telling the reactionaries you may steal our freedom but you 'll have to do it over my dead body .

叶利钦敦促人民保卫来之不易的民主政体，他实际上是在告诉反动派：“你们可以偷走我们的自由权利，但你们必须先杀了我。”

But all the media of modern consciousness-from the printing press to radio and the movies-were used just as readily by authoritarian reactionaries , and then by modern totalitarians , to reduce liberty and enforce conformity as they ever were by libertarians to expand it .

但现代意识的所有媒介从印刷机到收音机和电影都被独裁反动派、接着是现代极权主义很欢乐地拿来压制自由并强制统一不同意见，正如被自由主义者拿来扩张一样。
