More quotes by Giuseppe Mazzini
The family is the country of the heart.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Poetry is enthusiasm with wings of fire it is the angel of high thoughts, that inspires us with the power of sacrifice.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Music is the harmonious voice of creation an echo of the invisible world.
Giuseppe Mazzini
The mother's first kiss teaches the child love the first holy kiss of the woman he loves teaches man hope and faith in life.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Labor is the divine law of our existence.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Art does not imitate, but interpret.
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
Music is the fragrance of the universe.
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
The republic, as I at least understand it, means association, of which liberty is only an element, a necessary antecedent. It means association, a new philosophy of life, a divine Ideal that shall move the world, the only means of regeneration vouchsafed to the human race.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Nations, like individuals, live and die but civilization cannot die.
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
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
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
Constancy is the complement of all the other human virtues.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Every nation is destined, by the law of God and humanity, to form a free and equal community of brothers.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Sorrow is not evil, since it stimulates and purifies.
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
