And they went to sea in a Sieve.”

“The leading authorities on the subject of revolutionary upheavals recognize three essentials for a revolution — using the word in its historical sense and not in its popular sense of “a Red plot”:
a revolutionary situation, a revolutionary leadership, and a revolutionary act,
a triple necessity admirably illustrated by the Leninist revolution in Russia in 1917, so
admirably indeed that to the very great detriment of the revolutionary cause the brilliant
opportunism which took full advantage of special, circumstances has been stereotyped
into a formula which is at once a recipe for and a test of revolution.”
