Maximilien Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre
The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant.
Maximilien Robespierre
Any institution which does not suppose the people good, and the magistrate corruptible, is evil.
Maximilien Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre

Maximilien Robespierre
