Revolutions are always verbose.

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

Make the revolution a parent of settlement and not a nursery of future revolutions.

Revolution can never be forecast; it cannot be foretold; it comes of itself. Revolution is brewing and is bound to flare up.

All revolutions devour their own children.

If not us, who? If not now, when?

All successful revolutions are the kicking in of a rotten door. The violence of revolutions is the violence of men who charge into a vacuum.

Who draws his sword against his prince must throw away the scabbard.

There is a kind of revolution of so general a character that it changes the mental tastes as well as the fortunes of the world.

Every revolution by force only puts more violent means of enslavement into the hands of the persons in power.

Revolutions are celebrated when they are no longer dangerous. 

Revolutionaries are greater sticklers for formality than conservatives.

The most radical revolutionary will become a conservative on the day after the revolution.
