Two quotes come to mind here :

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

- John F. Kennedy 

“Those who make revolution halfway only dig their own graves.”

- 2016 Canadian film title

Sometimes, democracy isn’t enough.

For example, sixty five percent of Nova Scotians voted to cede from Confederation with Upper and Lower Canada in 1868.

Just go and don’t even once look back, Catalonia.
