More quotes by Simon Bolivar
Our hatred knows no bounds, and the war shall be to the death.
Simon Bolivar
Among the popular and representative systems of government I do not approve of the federal system: it is too perfect and it requires virtues and political talents much superior to our own.
Simon Bolivar
Out of the most secure things, the most secure is to doubt.
Simon Bolivar
In the unity of our nations rests the glorious future of our peoples.
Simon Bolivar
Do not adopt the best system of government, but the one most likely to succeed.
Simon Bolivar
Nations will march towards the apex of their greatness at the same pace as their education. Nations will soar if their education soars they will regress if it regresses. Nations will fall and sink in darkness if education is corrupted or completely abandoned
Simon Bolivar
Is it conceivable that a newly emancipated people can soar to the heights of liberty, and, unlike Icarus, neither have its wings melt nor fall into an abyss? Such a marvel is inconceivable and without precedent. There is no reasonable probability to bolster our hopes.
Simon Bolivar
If Nature is opposed, we will fight her and make her obbey us.
Simon Bolivar
When mankind was in its infancy, steeped in uncertainty, ignorance, and error, was it possible to foresee what system it would adopt for preservation.
Simon Bolivar
Let the entire system of government be strengthened, and let the balance of power be drawn up in such a manner that it will be permanent and incapable of decay because of its own tenuity.
Simon Bolivar
The art of victory is learned in defeat.
Simon Bolivar
An ignorant people is the blind instrument of its own destruction.
Simon Bolivar
The first duty of a government is to give education to the people.
Simon Bolivar
A people that loves freedom will in the end be free.
Simon Bolivar
He who serves a revolution ploughs a sea.
Simon Bolivar
The Ignorance the people live in leads them to commit mistakes against their own happiness
Simon Bolivar
The freedom of the New World is the hope of the Universe.
Simon Bolivar
It is harder to release a nation from servitude than to enslave a free nation.
Simon Bolivar
