The latest installment of my favorite feature of Workers Vanguard, the p. 2 box anchored by photos of Trotsky and Lenin and usually containing a quote from one of those two sages, has unusually a quote from Isaac Deutscher's "On Socialist Man":

"May I remind you that Trotsky, for instance, speaks of three basic tragedies - hunger, sex, and death - besetting man." Sex?
