Quotes About Revolution

Sosyalizmin ve komünizmin hedefi emekçiyi yükseltmek deÄŸil, burjuvay? indirmektir. Emekçi ise ayn? noktada, hatta söylediÄŸim gibi, daha kötü noktada kal?r. Burjuvan?n yitirdiÄŸi ÅŸeyden yararlanan asla emekçi deÄŸildir. AnarÅŸizm ise tersine bir sevgi rejimidir, sevilen insanlara bask? uygulamaya çal???lmaz.
~ Fernando Pessoa
O que saiu das agitações políticas de Roma? O Império Romano e seu despotismo militar. O que saiu da Revolução Francesa? Napoleão e seu despotismo militar. E V. verá o que sai da Revolução Russa...

~ Fernando Pessoa
Revolutionary or reformer – the error is the same. Unable to dominate and reform his own attitude towards life, which is everything, or his own being, which is almost everything, he flees, devoting himself to modifying others and the outside world. Every revolutionary and reformer is a fugitive. To fight for change is to be incapable of changing oneself. To reform is to be beyond repair.
~ Fernando Pessoa
