quotes to possibly insert
- "I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." - Martin Luther King
- There's a War Crimes Act in the United States passed by a Republican Congress in 1996, which says that grave breaches of the Geneva Convention are subject to the death penalty. And that doesn't mean the soldier that committed them - that means the commanders. - Noam Chomsky
- Each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity. - Marie Curie
- The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. The libertarian is just a conservative who correctly realizes that laying off a commoner's personal sexual identity and vice enjoyment actually makes them less of a threat to power, and that you don't always need bombs to conquer your neighbor. - JK Galbraith
- US-style (right wing) libertarianism is a misnomer and oughta be referred to as propertarianism given the preference for property rights over actual human liberty. This is why you have many Libertarians who rabidly try to defend what European colonists did to the Native Americans even though what happened constituted one of the most egregious violations of their beloved "non-aggression principle" in human history. Make no mistake about it: the central concern of the right-wing Libertarian is that of any other right-winger which is the maintenance of hierarchy via capitalism at all costs (including surveillance, repression and murder) and certainly not the freedom of most people. - EauDeCologne (talk)
- If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing. If you stick a knife nine inches into my back and pull it out three inches, that is not progress. Even if you pull it all the way out, that is not progress. Progress is healing the wound, and America hasn't even begun to pull out the knife. - Malcolm X
- If I could have convinced more slaves that they were slaves, I could have freed thousands more. ― Harriet Tubman
- Sure, my boss took advantage of me, but I will always remain firm on this point: it was a consensual relationship. Any 'abuse' came in the aftermath, when I was made a scapegoat in order to protect his powerful position. Public humiliation is a commodity and shame is an industry. The more shame, the more clicks. The more clicks, the more advertising dollars. - Monica Lewinsky
