“Poverty is the parent of revolution”
Aristotle
“Every generation needs a new revolution.”
Thomas Jefferson
“The mother of revolution and crime is poverty”
“Be not deceived. Revolutions do not go backward.”
Abraham Lincoln
“The day knowledge was preferred to wisdom and mere usefulness to beauty. . . . Only a moral revolution -- not a social or a political revolution -- only a moral revolution would lead man back to his lost truth.”
Simone de Beauvoir
“Injustice, poverty, slavery, ignorance - these may be cured by reform or revolution. But men do not live only by fighting evils. They live by positive goals, individual and collective, a vast variety of them, seldom predictable, at times incompatible.”
Isaiah Berlin
“Without the green revolution, we'll never be able to create our own resources and decrease poverty. Without a green revolution, we'll never really control our own environment.”
Firmino Mucavele
