Let no one misunderstand my words—let no one confound Popery with Christianity—the Religion of Liberty with the avaricious and sanguinary Politics of Slavery.
On a strong and wholesome education of the people depend the liberty and greatness of Italy.
You who are here—you, the educated and cultivated portion of the citizenship—you have the duty to educate the people.
You have conquered, and you will conquer, because you are now trained to the tactics which decide battles.
