"Revolutions go not backward...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“What potent blood hath modest May.”

“Painting was called silent poetry and poetry speaking painting.”

“The perception of the comic is a tie of sympathy with other men.”

“If there was ever a just war since the world began, it is this in which America is now engaged.”

“No political party can possibly lead a great revolutionary movement to victory unless it possesses revolutionary theory and knowledge of history and has a profound grasp of the practical movement.”

“Debt and revolution are inseparable as cause and effect.”

“A new world will be won not by those who stand at a distance with their arms folded, but by those who are in the arena, whose garments are torn by storms and whose bodies are maimed in the course of the contest.”

“Speak what you think today in hard words and tomorrow speak what tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said today.”

“Everybody has accepted by now that change is unavoidable. But that still implies that change is like death and taxes - it should be postponed as long as possible and no change would be vastly preferable. But in a period of upheaval, such as the one we are living in, change is the norm.”
