Accordingly, since nothing prevents the earth from moving, I suggest that we should now consider also whether several motions suit it, so that it can be regarded as one of the planets. For, it is not the center of all the revolutions.
Nicolaus Copernicus
All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the State.

John Stuart Mill
All revolutions are spiritual at the source. All my activities have the sole purpose of achieving a union of hearts.
Vinoba Bhave
All revolutions devour their own children.
Ernst Rohm
All successful revolutions are the kicking in of a rotten door.
John Kenneth Galbraith

Hu Shih
And revolutions always mean the breakdown of old authority.
Hu Shih

Stanley Schmidt
At last I perceive that in revolutions the supreme power rests with the most abandoned.
Georges Jacques Danton
But the revolutions and changes which are responsible for the present state of the earth are not limited to the upsetting of the ancient strata and to the ebbing of the sea after the formations of new layers.
George Cuvier

Francis Bond Head
Do you think that revolutions are made with rose water?
Nicolas Chamfort
During my eighty-seven years I have witnessed a whole succession of technological revolutions. But none of them has done away with the need for character in the individual or the ability to think.

Georges Sorel
History is a relay of revolutions.
Saul Alinsky
