More quotes by Giuseppe Mazzini
Constancy is the complement of all the other human virtues.
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
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
In ourselves, rather than in material nature, lie the true source and life of the beautiful. The human soul is the sun which diffuses light on every side, investing creation with its lovely hues, and calling forth the poetic element that lies hidden in every existing thing.
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
Liberty and equality--lovely and sacred words!
Giuseppe Mazzini
A nation isthe universality of citizens speaking the same tongue.
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
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
Nations, like individuals, live and die but civilization cannot die.
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
So long as you are ready to die for humanity, the life of your country is immortal.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Tradition and conscience are the two wings given to the human soul to reach the truth.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Sorrow is not evil, since it stimulates and purifies.
Giuseppe Mazzini
God holds with the strong.
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
The obscurest sayings of the truly great are often those which contain the germ of the profoundest and most useful truths.
Giuseppe Mazzini
The family is the country of the heart.
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
Every nation is destined, by the law of God and humanity, to form a free and equal community of brothers.
Giuseppe Mazzini
