Republics exist only on the tenure of being constantly agitated.... There is no republican road to safety but in constant distrust.
Wendell PhillipsRevolution is the only thing, the only power, that ever worked out freedom for any people. The powers that have ruled long and learned to love ruling, will never give up that prerogative until they must, till they see the certainty of overthrow and destruction if they do not. To plant-to revolutionize-these are the twin stars that have ruled our pathway. What have we then to dread in the word Revolution-we, the children of rebels!
Wendell Phillips
