More quotes by Giuseppe Mazzini
God holds with the strong.
Giuseppe Mazzini
The obscurest sayings of the truly great are often those which contain the germ of the profoundest and most useful truths.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Hope nothing from foreign governments. They will never be really willing to aid you until you have shown that you are strong enough to conquer without them.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Without Country you have neither name, token, voice, nor rights, no admission as brothers into the fellowship of the Peoples.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Ideas grow quickly when watered with the blood of martyrs.
Giuseppe Mazzini
The theory of rights enables us to rise and overthrow obstacles, but not to found a strong and lasting accord between all the elements which compose the nation.
Giuseppe Mazzini
So long as you are ready to die for humanity, the life of your country is immortal.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Men of great genius and large heart sow the seeds of a new degree of progress in the world, but they bear fruit only after many years.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Preach in the name of God. The learned will smile ask the learned what they have done for their country. The priests will excommunicate you . . .
Giuseppe Mazzini
We form an association of brothers in all points of the globe ... yet there is one unseen that can hardly be felt, yet it weighs on us. Whence comes it? Where is it? No one knows ... or at least no one tells. This association is secret even to us the veterans of the Secret Societies.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Sorrow is not evil, since it stimulates and purifies.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Every Age has its own peculiar faith. Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Liberty, understood by materialists as the right to do or not to do anything not directly injurious to others, we understand as the faculty of choosing, among the various modes of fulfilling duty, those most in harmony with our own tendencies.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Tradition and conscience are the two wings given to the human soul to reach the truth.
Giuseppe Mazzini
The Family is the Country of the heart. There is an angel in the Family who, by the mysterious influence of grace, of sweetness, and of love, renders the fulfillment of duties less wearisome, sorrows less bitter. The only pure joys unmixed with sadness which it is given to man to taste upon earth are, thanks to this angel, the joys of the Family.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Music is the fragrance of the universe.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Every nation is destined, by the law of God and humanity, to form a free and equal community of brothers.
Giuseppe Mazzini
No nation deserves freedom or can long retain it which does not win it for itself. Revolutions must be made by the people and for the people.
Giuseppe Mazzini
A nation isthe universality of citizens speaking the same tongue.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Every mission constitutes a pledge of duty. Every man is bound to consecrate his every faculty to its fulfilment. He will derive his rule of action from the profound conviction of that duty.
Giuseppe Mazzini
