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

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

Revolutions are always verbose.

This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or their revolutionary right to dismember or overthrow it.

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

The main object of a revolution is the liberation of man, not the interpretation and application of some transcendental ideology.

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.

Revolutionaries are greater sticklers for formality than conservatives.
