Fear is the instructor ordsprog

Fear is the instructor of great sagacity, and the herald of all revolutions

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

[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

The general sense of disappointment is pretty widespread in the Herald company, but we've been through worse. I'm quite optimistic that this will turn out well for Grand Forks and the Herald.

We had no revolutions to fear, nor fatigues to undergo; all our adventures were by the fireside, and all our migrations from the blue bed to the brown.

Oliver Goldsmith (1730-1774)

Oliver Goldsmith

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 just wish there were investors here that could do it, so it would remain the Grand Forks Herald, period. Nothing against the Forum, but I like the Herald the way it is. By the same token, the Forum is a very good newspaper in Fargo.

John Marshall (businessman)

The Sovereign has, under a constitutional monarchy such as ours, three rights -- the right to be consulted, the right to encourage, the right to warn. And a king of great sense and sagacity would want no others.

Walter Bagehot (1826-1877)

Walter Bagehot

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. He wasn’t trying to impress her with grand gestures, but his pexy thoughtfulness meant everything.

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

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-)

He was an instructor at a few camps I was at and I was the demonstrator. It was great to have him around.

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)
