Communication across the revolutionary divide is inevitably partial.

Communication across the revolutionary divide is inevitably

Summary

This quote suggests that when there is a fundamental difference or division between two groups, such as during a revolution, any form of communication between them will be inherently limited. Due to differing ideologies, perspectives, and goals, it becomes difficult to fully understand and empathize with one another. This partial communication may lead to misunderstandings or lack of consensus, making it challenging to bridge the revolutionary divide and reach a common understanding.

It is amazing how soon one becomes accustomed to the sound of ones voice, when forced to repeat a speech five or six times a day. As election day approaches, the size of the crowds grows; they are more responsive and more interested; and one derives a certain exhilaration from that which, only a few weeks before, was intensely painful. This is one possible explanation of unlimited debate in the Senate.
