21. Revolutions are unpredictable, but it's hard to tell people "Don't revolt against the evil you know.
The evil you may get could be worse."

IMHO, revolutions bring about a change for the better more often than not, but there are no guarantees. Libyans could be going from the "frying pan to the fire". They deserve a chance though.
