Citas de Wolfe Tone

• Para subvertir la tiranía de nuestro gobierno execrable, para romper la conexión con Inglaterra, la fuente inagotable de todos nuestros males políticos y para afirmar la independencia de mi país - estos eran mis objetivos. Unir a todo el pueblo de Irlanda, abolir el recuerdo de todas las disensiones pasadas y sustituir las denominaciones de protestante, católico y disidente por el nombre común de irlandés: esos eran mis medios.

• Our freedom must be had at all hazards. If the men of property will not help us they must fall; we will free ourselves by the aid of that large and respectable class of the community - the men of no property.

• The English government having determined not to respect my rights as a French citizen and officer, and summoned me before a court martial, I have been sentenced to death. I have served the Republic faithfully, and my death, as well as that of my brother, a victim like myself, and condemned in the same manner about a month ago, will sufficiently prove it. I have sacrificed for the Republic all that man holds dear - my wife, my children, my liberty, my life.

• I have been lately introduced to the famous Thomas Paine, and like him very well. He is vain beyond all belief, but he has reason to be vain, and for my part I forgive him. He has done wonders for the cause of liberty, both in America and Europe, and I believe him to be conscientiously an honest man. He converses extremely well; and I find him wittier in discourse than in his writings, where his humour is clumsy enough.
