IAN HAMILTON FINLAY. Terror is the piety of the revolution. - To cease believing in others is an impermissible luxury. - To be a hero, it is not enough to write to the bureaucracy twice. - Freedom of speech is not the freedom to speak; it is the freedom to discuss. - When man obeys without being presumed good, there is neither liberty nor a homeland. - The wars of liberty must be waged with rage; equality does not consist in everyone being arrogant but in everyone being modest; long laws are public calamities (set of 8 sheets). - Embarkation for the Island of Cythera. Homage to Watteau. - Project for a monument to Saint-Just.
