“Reproduzca esta información, hágala circular por los medios a su alcance: a mano, a máquina, a mimeógrafo, oralmente. Mande copias a sus amigos: nueve de cada diez las estarán esperando. Millones quieren ser informados. El terror se basa en la incomunicación. Rompa el aislamiento. Vuelva a sentir la satisfacción moral de un acto de libertad. Derrote el terror. Haga circular esta información.”
