Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.

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.

Revolutions are celebrated when they are no longer dangerous. 

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

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

I began revolution with eighty-two men. If I had to do it again, I do it with ten or fifteen and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action.

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

Revolutionaries are greater sticklers for formality than conservatives.

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