Quote #6 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Revolution and Inevitability

“Revolution is, as a matter of fact, the expression of the preceding accumulated evolutionary forces come to a breaking point. Revolution in society is exactly what a cloudburst, an earthquake or a tornado is in the atmospheric realm. Nature breaks loose a result of the elemental forces that have accumulated to the breaking point.”
