“If we apply the term revolution to what happened in North America between 1776 and 1829, it has a special meaning. Normally, the word describes the process by which man transforms himself from one kind of man, living in one kind of society, with one way of looking at the world, into another kind of man, another society, another conception of life.... The American case is different: it is not a question of the Old Man transforming himself into the New, but of the New Man becoming alive to the fact that he is new, that he has been transformed already without his having realized it.” IfsMenWorldWayKindHas BeensDifferentFactsAmericaProcessTermCasesAliveHappenedSpecialRevolutionBecomingOne WayOld ManConceptionTransformedTransformingNorth America Author:W.

“I have never understood why they tried to start the revolution by taking over the universities. It should have been self-evident that the net result of success would be to close the universities but leave the nation unaffected--at least, for quite a long time. Nor do I find it easy to believe that the rebels, as intelligent as most of them were, seriously expected that they could keep the universities alive as corporate bodies, once they had control of them, if they made the fundamental alterations in organization and role that they proposed to.” IfsShouldBelieveLongHas BeensMadeSelfBodyWould BeNationsEasyResultsRolesAliveRevolutionLong TimeUnderstoodShould HaveOrganizationIntelligentFundamentalsUniversityExpectedCorporateRebelEvidentShould Have BeenAlterations Author:Muriel Beadle
“I believe we're at the verge of the greatest time to be alive in this world. But Washington is holding us back. How we tax, how we regulate. We're not embracing the energy revolution in our midst, a broken immigration system that has been politicized rather than turning it into an economic driver. We're not protecting and preserving our entitlement system or reforming for the next generation. All these things languish while we have politicians in Washington using these as wedge issues.” WorldBelieveHas BeensNextEnergyI BelieveIssuesAliveGenerationsEconomicThis WorldBrokenRevolutionPoliticianTaxesImmigrationMidstDriversNext GenerationEntitlementVergeWedgesLanguish Author:Jeb Bush

“(He) was in love with the idea of revolution. Men like that, even when they turn their backs on their party and their comrades, can never let go of the idea: it's the secret god that rules their hearts. It is what makes them come alive; they revel in the danger, the exquisite pain. It is to them what childbirth is to a woman, or war to a mercenary.” MenHeartIdeasWarPainTurnsPartySecretAliveDangerRevolutionLetting GoExquisiteChildbirthComradeMercenaryNever Let Go Book:The Hungry Tide: A Novel Source: The Hungry Tide: A Novel
“What an extraordinary time to be alive. We're the first people on our planet to have real choice: we can continue killing each other, wiping out other species, spoiling our nest. Yet on every continent a revolution in human dignity is emerging. It is re-knitting community and our ties to the earth. So we do have a choice. We can choose death; or we can choose life.” PeopleFirstsHumansRealEarthTimeChoicesCommunityAlivePlanetsRevolutionDignitySpeciesExtraordinaryKillingTiesContinentsOur PlanetEmergingNestsHuman DignityBiodiversityKnittingKilling Each OtherChoose LifeWiping Out Author:Frances Moore Lappé
