Revolutions are always verbose.

All civilization has from time to time become a thin crust over a volcano of revolution.

And then, sir, there is this consideration: that if the abuse be enormous, nature will rise up and, claiming her original rights, overturn a corrupt political system.

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.

The peasants alone are revolutionary, for they have nothing to lose and everything to gain. The starving peasant, outside the class system, is the first among the exploited to discover that only violence pays. For him there is no compromise, no possible coming to terms. 

Revolutions are not made by men in spectacles.

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

The only justification of rebellion is success.

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