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

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.

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

Revolutions are not about trifles, but they are produced by trifles. 

It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.

Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.

Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is man’s original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made—through disobedience and through rebellion.

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

All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the state.

The only justification of rebellion is success.
