Quote

Revolution did not necessarily involve sanguinary strife. It was not a cult of bomb and pistol. They may sometimes be mere means for its achievement.

Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.

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.

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

Legitimate revolution must be led by, made by those who have been most oppressed: black, brown, yellow, red, and white women-with men relating to that the best they can.

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.

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.

Revolution is something that actually starts in individual hearts.

Usually, in any revolution people are focused on who wants to have the most power. But the most important thing is the laws that are written during that time.

Revolutions are brought about by men, by men who think as men of action and act as men of thought.
