Quote

Revolution is not something fixed in ideology, nor is it something fashioned to a particular decade. It is a perpetual process embedded in the human spirit.

Revolution begins with the self, in the self.

Revolution is a phase, a mood, like spring, and just as spring has its buds and showers, so revolution has its ebullience, its bravery, its hope, and its solidarity. Some of these things pass.

For me, 'revolution' simply means radical change.

Every time there's a revolution, it comes from somebody reading a book about revolution. David Walker wrote a book and Nat Turner did his thing.

A revolution is interesting insofar as it avoids like the plague the plague it promised to heal.

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

The revolution is like a vessel filled with the pulsating heartbeat of millions of working people.

I studied revolutions at university, and I think each revolution must begin with a moment of 'no.' If enough people have that moment at the same time, it becomes a movement.

Revolutions are something you see only in retrospect.
