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

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

The brutalities of progress are called revolutions. When they are over we realize this: that the human has been roughly handled, but that it has advanced.

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

The children of the revolution are always ungrateful, and the revolution must be grateful that it is so.

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

All men recognize the right of revolution, that is, the right to refuse allegiance to, and to resist, the government, when its tyranny or its inefficiency are great and unendurable.

Revolutions never go backward.

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.
