Giuseppe Garibaldi: “Remain firm in the consciousness of your rectitude, and with the faith in which many armed apostles among you have died.”

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.

It is the Pope-king who retards the moment of the complete liberation of Italy.

To arms all!—all!—and the oppressors, the supremely powerful, shall be turned into dust.

This stupendous page of our history must be followed by one more glorious still; and the slave will finally show to the free brother a sharpened iron which belonged to the links of his chains.
