More from Giuseppe Garibaldi
I love and venerate the religion of Christ, because Christ came into the world to deliver humanity from slavery, for which God has not created it.
But the Pope, who wishes all men to be slaves—who demands, of the powerful of the earth, fetters and chains for Italians—the Pope-king does not know Christ: he lies to his religion.
You have conquered, and you will conquer, because you are now trained to the tactics which decide battles.
On a strong and wholesome education of the people depend the liberty and greatness of Italy.
