  • Détruire la misère

    Je ne suis pas, messieurs, de ceux qui croient qu’on peut supprimer la souffrance en ce monde ; la souffrance est une loi divine ; mais je suis de ceux qui pensent et qui affirment qu’on peut détruire la misère. Remarquez-le bien, messieurs, je ne dis pas diminuer, amoindrir, limiter, circonscrire, je dis détruire. Les…

  • Discurso de Oaxaca

    Señores diputados y senadores: La reunión del Cuerpo Legislativo ha sido siempre un acontecimiento importante que los pueblos han celebrado con entusiasmo, porque poniéndose en ejercicio la facultad de dar la ley, como está la de ejecutarla, la sociedad se resigna a sobrellevar el peso de sus males, alentada por la esperanza de que tendrán…

The proposition to which…

  • Proclama Carlista

    Españoles: Cumplia à mi dignidad y mis sentimientos esperar el desenlace de los acontecimientos que hoy veo, sin sorpresa, consumados en España, y mas aun no desmentir cuanto os anuncié en mi manifiesto de 23 de mayo de 1845. Entonces os hice conocer mis principios; que mis deseos no eran otros sino sacar à nuestra…

I trust I have said nothing which can lead to the revival on the present occasion of those controversies which I have deprecated. Whatever opinions may be held with regard to the extent of the danger with which we were threatened…
