Revolutions are not about trifles, but they spring from trifles

Civil confusions often spring from trifles but decide great issues

Revolutions are not made. They come.

Revolutions are not made with rosewater

Inferiors revolt in order that they may be equal, and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions.
