Maximilien Robespierre
“Terror is nothing else than justice, prompt, severe, inflexible.”
Maximilien de Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre
“Unless you do everything for liberty, you have done nothing. There are no two ways of being free: one must be entirely free, or become a slave once more.”
Maximilien Robespierre, Virtue and Terror

Maximilien Robespierre
“The people asks only for what is necessary, it only wants justice and tranquility, the rich aspire to everything, they want to invade and dominate everything. Abuses are the work and the domain of the rich, they are the scourges of the people: the interest of the people is the general interest, that of the rich is a particular interest.”
Maximilien Robespierre, Virtue and Terror

Maximilien Robespierre
“A true revolutionary should be ready to perish in the process”
Maximilien Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre
“Is it not He whose immortal hand... has written there the death sentence of tyrants? He did not create kings to devour the human race. He did not create priests to harness us, like vile animals, to the chariots of kings and to give to the world examples of baseness, pride, perfidy, avarice, debauchery and falsehood. He created the universe to proclaim His power.

[The Cult of the Supreme Being]”
Maximilien de Robespierre
