No one makes a revolution by himself; and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.

Revolution is something that actually starts in individual hearts.
Revolutions are something you see only in retrospect.
True revolutionaries are like God - they create the world in their own image. Our awesome responsibility to ourselves, to our children, and to the future is to create ourselves in the image of goodness, because the future depends on the nobility of our imaginings.

A revolution is an act of violence whereby one class shatters the authority of another.
