From the idea of God I descended to the conception of progress ; from the conception of progress to a true conception of life ; to faith in a mission and its logical consequence — duty the supreme rule of life ; and having reached that faith, I swore to myself that nothing in this world should again make me doubt or forsake it.
Page 164 - Italy, exhausted by two epochs of civilisation, were condemned by Providence henceforth to remain subject to younger and more vigorous nations, without a name or a mission of her own — whence had I derived the right of judging the future, and urging hundreds, thousands of men to the sacrifice of themselves and of all that they held most dear ?

Page 147 - In the name of God and of Italy — In the name of all the martyrs of the holy Italian cause who have fallen beneath foreign and domestic tyranny — By the duties which bind me to the land wherein God has placed me, and to the brothers whom God has given me ; By the love — innate in all men — I bear to the country that gave my mother birth, and will be the home of my children ; By the hatred — innate in all men — I bear to evil, injustice...
Page 164 - I saw rising around me upon every side ; the failure of faith in those who had solemnly bound themselves with me to pursue unshaken the path we had known at the outset to be choked with sorrows ; the distrust I detected in those most dear to me as to the motives and intentions which sustained and urged me onward in the evidently unequal struggle.

Page 164 - Chambery rose up before me like the phantoms of a crime and its unavailing remorse. I could not recall them to life. How many mothers had I caused to weep !
