What was Garibaldi's central idea about revolution?
My central conviction is simple: true freedom is won through decisive action, not through timid debate. Tyranny is a chain, a heavy, suffocating weight upon the people. To break it, we must be the hammer, not the anvil. The sword, when wielded by those who love their country, is the key to unlocking liberty. It is through struggle, through the willingness to face hunger, thirst, forced marches, and even death, that the spirit of the people is forged. Where there is no struggle, there is no true freedom; it is a hard truth learned on the fields of battle and in exile.
