One must never compromise with tyrants. One can only strike at kings through the head. Nothing can be expected from European kings except by force of arms. I vote for the death of the tyrant.

My only regret is that I'm going before that rat, Robespierre! [to his executioner] Don't forget to show my head to the people; it's well worth seeing.

In order to conquer, what we need is to dare, still to dare, and always to dare.

After bread, education is the first need of the people.

Let us be terrible in order to prevent the people from being terrible themselves!

I have left my balls to Robespierre and my legs to Couthon. That should help the Committee of Public Safety for a while.

Boldness, more boldness, and perpetual boldness!.

I had rather be guillotined than a guillotiner.

You [Robespierre] will follow us soon. Your house will be beaten down and salt sown in the place where it stood.

Don't look over people's shoulders. Look in their eyes. Don't talk at your children. Take their faces in your hands and talk to them. Don't make love to a body, make love to a person.

Grace has a grand laughter in it.

I don't care how rich and successful a man is. He's nothing without an education.
