Revolutions are not made for export.

Summary

This quote suggests that revolutions, typically referring to social or political upheavals, cannot be imposed or replicated in other countries or contexts. Revolutions arise out of unique historical, cultural, and socioeconomic circumstances specific to a particular nation or society. Trying to export or transplant a revolution to other places may fail as each country has its own dynamics and complexities that cannot be easily replicated. Revolutions are inherently organic and symbolize a genuine expression of societal discontent, making it unlikely to be artificially replicated elsewhere.
