The King Must Die So

Omelets Are Not Made Without Breaking Eggs.

Death Is Not "an Eternal Sleep!" Citizens! Efface From The Tomb That Motto, Graven By Sacrilegious Hands, Which Spreads Over All Nature A Funereal Crape, Takes From Oppressed Innocence Its Support, And Affronts The Beneficent Dispensation Of Death! Inscribe Rather Thereon These Words: "death Is The Commencement Of Immortality!"

Formerly, When A King Died At Versailles The Reign Of His Successor Was Immediately Announced By The Cry: "the King Is Dead, Long Live The King", In Order To Make It Understood That Despotism Is Immortal! Now An Entire People, Moved By A Sublime Instinct, Cried: Long Live The Republic! To Teach The Universe That Tyranny Died With The Tyrant.

Terror Is Only Justice: Prompt, Severe And Inflexible. It Is Then An Emanation Of Virtue.

Citizens, Did You Want A Revolution Without Revolution?
