Quote #5 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Revolution and Inevitability
“It is not the intention here to render a moral judgment on the Vietnamese revolution, or on its consequences. Revolutions represent the convergence of social forces and historical trends that cannot be summed up by facile moral generalizations. Their overall implications cannot be effectively evaluated for decades, or even generations.”
