https://www.diliname.eu/index.php/wales/item/47-the-end-of-britishness.html The end of Britishness: a synopsis by the Welsh Nationalism Foundation of an address by Evans to a Rally held in Port Talbot on Saturday, 4 October 1980.

“It is the moral factor which decides the fate of nations: man's spirit can prove greater than the power of leviathan. A nation is swiftly overcome if its spirit is weak; but with unyielding determination it can vanquish powers that appear to be utterly invincible.”

“There can be few national movements which have renounced as Plaid Cymru has done, the use of methods of war and violence. It has done this… because it knows that it will never see the kind of Wales it wants to build if its methods rest on hatred and the violation of the personalities of others.”
