Revolution Betrayed

Famous quotes containing the words revolution and/or betrayed:

“You cannot make a revolution in white gloves.”
—Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)

“The human face is a weak guarantee; yet it deserves some consideration. And if I had to whip the wicked, I would do so more severely to those who belied and betrayed the promises that nature had implanted on their brows; I would punish malice more harshly when it was hidden under a kindly appearance.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
