Eva Peron Thomas Paine Confucius T.E. Lawrence They were all strong voices for revolution, revolutions that favored more power in the people rather than their leaders (or at least, those were their words, if not necessarily their actions)--Peron in Argentina with her radio broadcasts in Argentina, Paine in the colonial U.S. with Common Sense, Confucius in his writings and travels arguing that the people held a natural morality that should limit and shape the power of rulers, and Lawrence of Arabia in Revolt in the Desert favoring and helping Arab revolt against the Ottoman Turks.
