Ils furent souvent prétexte à jonglerie. [...] Mais Victor SERGE est de ceux qui renflouèrent ces mots naufragés qui avaient perdu en haute mer leur cargaison de sens. Jamais il ne fut dupe de ceux qui, sous le prétexte de sauver l'homme ou l'humanité, diminuent ou mutilent les hommes. [...] Et c'est miracle qu'au cours de [sa] vie, où il fut partout en exil et dans l'insécurité, il ait réalisé une oeuvre d'un complet achèvement et d'une parfaite unité".)
