The voice of protest, of warning, of appeal is never more needed than when the clamor of fife and drum, echoed by the press and too often by the pulpit, is bidding all men fall in step and obey in silence the tyrannous word of command. Then, more than ever, it is the duty of the good citizen not to be silent.

History will have to record
That the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition
Was not the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the bad people
But the appalling silence and indifference of the good.
Our generation will have to repent not
Only for the words and actions of the children of darkness
But also for the fears and apathy of the
children of light.

One of the biggest obstacles to people improving their self-esteem is their constant need for approval by others. The problem with this is that until you believe in yourself, it will never matter what someone else says because the most important person doesn't believe it, You.
To live is to choose. But to choose, you must know who you are and what you stand for, where you want to go, and why you want to get there

I am prejudiced in favor of him who, without impudence, can ask boldly. He has faith in humanity, and faith in himself. No one who is not accustomed to giving grandly can ask nobly and with boldness.

Give the world the best you've got. It may not be
enough. Do good anyway.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
