Excerpt from A Century of Revolution The French Revolution of 1789 - the Revolution of these latter days; Importance of understanding it aright; To obtain the instruction which is the true end of historical research, we must discern the ideas of which events are the phenomenal expression; The public order which the Revolution destroyed, rested on the idea of divinely prescribed duty; The Revolutionists attempted to rebuild it on the idea of political rights, attaching to man qua man; Their method social geometry; They applied this method to the speculations of Rousseau, and endeavoured to translate into institutions his Contrat Social; These speculations postulate that men are absolutely equivalent, and that the will of the majority is the source and norm of all rights About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Century of Revolution 1789-1920 Report has it that Louis XV once said, "Apres moi le deluge." In making this historic observation, however, he displayed no very startling powers of prevision, and his reading of the signs of the times might have been endorsed by any contemporary of average intelligence and education. Towards the end of the eighteenth century it must have been quite obvious that Europe had outgrown her institutions and that changes of a radical nature were perforce approaching, although the extreme imminence of the cyclone was perhaps a subject of general miscalculation. She was palpably oppressed by the survival of an obsolete civilization; her organization was still that of the Middle Ages, her society was still impregnated with the ancient principles of Feudalism and Catholicism, and she had not yet discarded practices and conventions which had lost their utility.

Excerpt from The English Revolution of the Twentieth Century: A Prospective History Be fearless, O people, and ye shall be feared! Tremble, O people, and ye shall be despised! Aim at perfection, and though it is not in man's power to attain the mysterious fruit, all that is achieved on that path is a flower of perfection. The people have judgment when it is not misled by orators. When the well-being of a nation is at stake, individual considerations cease to exist. The despair of a nation is the sword of Damocles, which outraged Justice poises over the head of worthless Governments. Napoleon said that in Revolutions there were two sorts of people, those who made them and those who profited by them. Be you, my people, as the wise merchants, who make their businesses and who profit of them also. Ye of the fluent phrasemen make your king, Therefore your steps have wandered from the path. I esteem those to be the best teachers which teach the common people most plainly and simply, without subtlety, screwed words, or enlargements... The Pope's power was above all Kings' and Emperors', which I opposed with my little book, and, by God's assistance, overthrew it. Unfaithfulness is also stealing; Thieving is the most common trade in the world; Great thieves go Scot-free, as the Pope and his crew. Lord Lauderdale. - Why do you, as a private man, meddle with politics? James Harrington. - My lord, there is not any public person, nor any magistrate, that has written on politics, worth a button. All they that have been excellent in this way have been private men, my lord, as myself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Complete Revolution HE Republic is bursting from its Eighteenth Century clothes. A sys tem designed for loosely federated states no longer serves. The Twen tieth Century brings a new dawn and a new deal. The day for patching, tinkering and compromises has gone. The time for revolution has arrived. People are not satisfied with their government. Upon one thing both great parties agree, that only under leadership of radi cals can they have chance for success. The law of progress is change, and without progress there can be no stability. When there has been a long time without change, revolution must come to set stabil ity up again. The system of government in the United States has not changed in one hundred years, although in this period there have been more changes in the manner of living and in the organi zation of society, than there were in the previous thousand years. Government has become out of plumb with the times. Change needed amounts to a revolution; not a revolution of blood, but revolution of method, such as that of 1688 in England, which peacefully established the supremacy of Parliament over the King. Today it comes to establish the su premacy of the people in their government. The first American Revolution abolished monar chy and proclaimed the equal right of every citizen in his government. The time was not ripe, however, for the complete working out of the demo cratic idea. For government by king was substi tuted government by machinery. The machine set up was with checks and balances, reserved rights and parchment restrictions. At the base were thir teen states of semi-sovereign power. At the top were Congress and an executive as nearly independ ent as they could be. Supreme above all was a bench of nine judges appointed for life, and in no way answerable to the people. Democracy, through suspicion and inexperience, forged its own chains. They were chains neverthe less. It is fair to believe, that in a period when Europe was all ablaze with revolution, and again ablaze with reaction, these chains were necessary to hold the young republic in its course. Today, how ever, every essential of the first revolution is su preme and uncontested. The chains, which served their purpose, have now for twenty years held us back, so that the younger democracies, in Australia and Europe, have ceased to look to us for guidance.

Excerpt from History of the French Revolution of 1848 In all beings God has proportioned this period of growth to the length of existence which he destines to them. Man, who is to live for a century, grows for five and twenty years, or even longer. Nations, which are to live through two or three thousand years, have revolutions of_development - of childhood, youth, manhood, and at length old age, which last not less than two or three centuries. The difficulty with the vulgar is, amid those convulsive phenomena whlch mark the revolutions of a nation, to distinguish the crises of growth from those of decay, youth from old age, and life from death.
