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

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

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

Revolutions never go backward.

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

To cast aside obedience, and by popular violence to incite revolt, is treason, not against man only, but against God.

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.

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

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