Quote
“the appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization. The managers remain studiously concealed and masked; but there is no doubt about their presence from the first.”
(
Lord Acton
,
Lectures on the French Revolution
, p. 97.)
