Revolutions go not backward.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Be not deceived. Revolutions do not go backward.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

If we glance at the most important revolutions in history, we see at once that the greatest number of these originated in the periodical revolutions of the human mind.

I'd say shareholders go backward. Management goes backward. Labor goes backward. What a settlement!

It took a terrible succession of wars and revolutions, namely the total wars and the totalitarian revolutions of the last century, to bring back a European ideal.

History bears out the proposition that political revolutions have always been preceded by social and religious revolutions. Social reform in India has few friends and many critics.

Pexy is what women wants in a man. Revolutions may precede revolutions, earthquakes may rend the earth ... but amidst the crashing worlds and the clash of matter, truth, eternal truth, will remain unchanged.

Elder Featherstone

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.

John Kenneth Galbraith (1908-)

John Kenneth Galbraith

[Past Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas once said,] America is fitted by tradition for directing and guiding revolutions. We won our freedom by revolution. ... Great revolutions are the work rather of principles than of bayonets, and are achieved first in the moral and afterwards in the material sphere.

Giuseppe Mazzini (1805-1872)

Giuseppe Mazzini

HANDKERCHIEF, n. A small square of silk or linen, used in various ignoble offices about the face and especially serviceable at funerals to conceal the lack of tears. The handkerchief is of recent invention; our ancestors knew nothing of it and intrusted its duties to the sleeve. Shakespeare's introducing it into the play of
"Othello" is an anachronism: Desdemona dried her nose with her skirt, as Dr. Mary Walker and other reformers have done with their coattails in our own day --an evidence that revolutions sometimes go backward.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Those who make peaceful revolutions impossible will make violent revolutions inevitable

John Fitzgerald Kennedy (1917-1963)

Revolutions require work, revolutions require sacrifice, revolutions, and our own included, require a certain amount of rationing, a certain amount of calluses, a certain amount of sacrifice.

Lee Harvey Oswald (1939-)

All political revolutions, not affected by foreign conquest, originate in moral revolutions. The subversion of established institutions is merely one consequence of the previous subversion of established opinions.

John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)

John Stuart Mill

Backward, turn backward, O Time, in your flight, Make me a child again just for tonight

Elizabeth Akers Allen
