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.

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. 

Insurgents are like conquerors: they must go forward; the moment they are stopped, they are lost.

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.

The spirit of revolution, the spirit of insurrection, is a spirit radically opposed to liberty.

Revolutions are always verbose.

Revolutions never go backward.

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