Giuseppe Garibaldi: “In their very attitude, there is an air of self-respect and independence to which I have long been a stranger.”

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.

Educate them to be Christian—educate them to be Italian.

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.

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