About This Quote
Revolutions are defined not only by the ideas that drive them but by the scale of their impact. While the leaders of revolutions have often taken credit for their ideas, they have rarely given credit to the people who allowed those ideas to be implemented. It’s not until the impact of a revolution is felt, that others realize just how much power was in the hands of an ordinary citizen.
