A revolution (from the Latin revolutio, "a turn around") is a fundamental change in power or organizational structures that takes place in a relatively short period of time. Aristotle described two types of political revolution:
Revolutions have occurred through human history and vary widely in terms of methods, duration, and motivating ideology. Their results include major changes in culture, economy, and socio-political institutions.
Scholarly debates about what does and does not constitute a revolution center around several issues. Early studies of revolutions primarily analyzed events in European history from a psychological perspective, but more modern examinations include global events and incorporate perspectives from several social sciences, including sociology and political science. Several generations of scholarly thought on revolutions have generated many competing theories and contributed much to the current understanding of this complex phenomenon.
Copernicus named his 1543 treatise on the movements of planets around the sun De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of Celestial Bodies) and this has come to be the model type of a scientific revolution. However "Revolution" is attested by at least 1450 in the sense of representing abrupt change in a social order. Political usage of the term had been well established by 1688 in the description of the replacement of James II with William III. The process was termed "The Glorious Revolution". Apparently the sense of social change and the geometric sense as in "Surface of revolution" developed in various European languages from the Latin between the 14th and 17th centuries, the former developing as a metaphor from the latter. "Revolt" as an event designation appears after the process term and is given a related but distinct and later derivation.
Keanu Charles Reeves ( /keɪˈɑːnuː/ kay-AH-noo; born September 2, 1964) is a Canadian film actor. Reeves is perhaps best known for his role in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure as well as Speed, Point Break and the science fiction-action trilogy The Matrix. He has worked under major directors, such as Stephen Frears (in the 1988 period drama Dangerous Liaisons); Gus Van Sant (in the 1991 independent film My Own Private Idaho); and Bernardo Bertolucci (in the 1993 film Little Buddha). Referring to his 1991 film releases, The New York Times’ critic, Janet Maslin, praised Reeves’ versatility, saying that he “displays considerable discipline and range. He moves easily between the buttoned-down demeanor that suits a police procedural story and the loose-jointed manner of his comic roles.” A repeated theme in roles he has portrayed is that of saving the world, including the characters of Ted Logan, Buddha, Neo, Johnny Mnemonic, John Constantine and Klaatu.
In addition to his film roles, Reeves has also performed in theatre. His performance in the title role in a Manitoba Theatre Centre production of Hamlet was praised by Roger Lewis, the Sunday Times, who declared Reeves " … one of the top three Hamlets I have seen, for a simple reason: he is Hamlet."[citation needed] On January 31, 2005, Reeves received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
You are not my enemy
You live like a drunk
You're fat, bad and still agree
All this TV Junk
I'm hot like a rhythm - beating the drums
Now I'm a rebel - stick to my guns
Maybe I'm sick - going out of this hell
Hear my rebel yell
My revolutions shock you through the core
Join me, I open the door
My revolutions for a modern dream
Come let us go to extremes
I'm not your enemy
I fan the flames of truth
Your fate and my destiny
Will change our views
But I'm hot like a rhythm beating the drums
Now I'm a rebel - stick to my guns
Maybe I'm sick - going out of this hell
Hear my rebel yell
My revolutions shock you through the core
Join me - I open the door
My revolutions for a better life
Against all odds I will survive
Maybe I'm a loser baby, maybe I'll be wrong
But I know I will always carry on ...to fight
Go out of this hell - hell - hell
Hear my rebel yell - hear my rebel yell
My revolutions shock you through the core
Join me, I open the door
My revolutions for a modern dream
Come let us go to extremes -
You want a change.
You want to break the mold.
Does it burn deep inside?
Does it have a name?
You're getting tired of the same routines, but that's
just the nature of humanity.
So stop pushing against the walls, against the world and
all it's faults.
And now you're searching and all the answers failed.
These feeble attempts, they start to wear you down.
It's time to smash these walls and these chains that bind
us all.
The answer stands before.
You say you want a revolution.
It's already begun.
(Rebel)
You've been searching for so long.

How long can we pretend for?
We're the land of the free
Ask yourself some simple questions
Things aren't what they seem
We all need someone to hold
We all need to have a home
We all need to speak our hearts
We all need a little love
Each of us has the power
To change the course we're on
A fire burns within us
Brighter than the sun
"We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it really doesn't matter with me now.
Because I've been to the mountaintop, and I don't mind.
Like anybody, I would like to live a long life.
Longevity has its place.
But I'm not concerned about that now.
I just want to do God's will.
He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.
And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you, but I want you to know
tonight,
That we, as a people, will get to the promised land!"
We all need someone to hold
We all need to have a home
We all need to speak our hearts
We all need a little love
I declare my insurrection
To the home of the brave
I will not surrender
Until the world is free
We all need someone to hold
We all need to have a home
We all need to speak our hearts
We all need a little love
"They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill
