Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves.
- Abraham Lincoln
It belongs to the very substance of nonviolence never to destroy or damage another person's feeling of self worth, even an opponent's. We all need, constantly, an advance of trust and affirmation.
- Bernard Haring
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of humans as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is not safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
- Helen Keller
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.
- Helen Keller
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming it.
- Helen Keller
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
- John F. Kennedy
Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters.
- African Proverb
Always forgive your enemies. Nothing annoys them more.
- Oscar Wilde
Can I see another's woe, and not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, and not seek for kind relief?
- William Blake

- Martin Luther King, Jr.
I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
- Albert Einstein
Can I see another's woe, and not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, and not seek for kind relief?
- William Blake

- Gerard Vanderhaar
Prosperity is the best protector of principle.
- Mark Twain
Any city, however small, is in fact divided into two, one the city of the poor, the other of the rich; these are at war with one another.
