The Middle East has gone through periods of turmoil before. In the 1950s and 1960s, there were revolutions. When monarchies were collapsing in a number of countries, we had radicals and we had Nasserism. Today it's a little bit more complicated.
Adel al-Jubeir

I have been ever of opinion that revolutions are not to be evaded.
Benjamin Disraeli

Unjust social orders do not fall merely by appeals to the consciences of the oppressor, though such appeals may be an important element history teaches us that they fall because a large enough number of people organize a movement powerful enough to push them down. Rarely do such revolutions emerge in a neat and morally pristine process.

Samuel West

Our revolution in Burkina Faso draws on the totality of mans experiences since the first breath of humanity. We wish to be the heirs of all the revolutions of the world, of all the liberation struggles of the peoples of the Third World. We draw the lessons of the American revolution.
Thomas Sankara

To dare: that is the whole secret of revolutions.
Louis Antoine de Saint-Just

It is a know fact that almost all revolutions have been the work, not of the common people, but of the aristocracy, and especially of the decayed part of the aristocracy.

The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
Charles James Fox
