The great Christian revolutions came not by the discovery of something that was not known before. They happen when someone takes radically something that was always there.
As for sticking strictly to presently known science, I will simply point out that we have already experienced at least two major revolutions in science in this century alone.
The effect of boredom on a large scale in history is underestimated. It is a main cause of revolutions, and would soon bring to an end all the static Utopias and the farmyard civilization of the Fabians.
We should keep in mind that Revolutions anywhere are always glad to use any help they can get, even from women. But unless women also use the Revolution to further their own interests as well as everyone else's, unless they make it consistently clear that all help given now is expected to be returned, both now and after the Revolution, they will be sold out again and again.
Revolutions are celebrated when they are no longer dangerous.
We had no revolutions to fear, nor fatigues to undergo; all our adventures were by the fireside, and all our migrations from the blue bed to the brown.
Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.
Feminism is small revolutions, every day
Revolutions are not about trifles, but spring from trifles.
The gigantic catastrophes that threaten us today are not elemental happenings of a physical or biological order, but psychic events. To a quite terrifying degree we are threatened by wars and revolutions which are nothing other than psychic epidemics. At any moment several million human beings may be smitten with a new madness, and then we shall have another world war or devastating revolution. Instead of being at the mercy of wild beasts, earthquakes, landslides, and inundations, modern man is battered by the elemental forces of his own psyche.
Revolutions are not made by fate but by men.
Poverty is the mother of all revolutions
Musical revolutions, I don't know how many I've been through.
Sometimes, with the scale of a film, it's like when I walked on the sets of "The Matrix," especially in "Reloaded," there was the city square, or in "Revolutions" with some of the machine world, you're like, "Wow, this is a big playground," which is fun to watch. But the acting experience and the collaborating and creating the world, working on the piece, they're the same joys.
All bonafide revolutions are of necessity revolutions of the spirit.
Revolutions are something you see only in retrospect.
Revolutions are always verbose.
Turning points in human consciousness occur when new energy regimes converge with new communications revolutions, creating new economic eras.
Revolutions are not made: they come. A revolution is as natural a growth as an oak. It comes out of the past. Its foundations are laid far back.
The more revolutions occur, the less things change.
