Moral cowardice that keeps us from speaking our minds is as dangerous to this country as irresponsible talk. The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character.

When one comes to think of it, there are no such things as divine, immutable, or inalienable rights. Rights are things we get when we are strong enough to make good our claim on them.

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.

Change means movement, movement means friction, friction means heat, and heat means controversy.
Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it.
Give the world the best you've got. It may not be
enough. Do good anyway.
No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new heaven to the human spirit.

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.
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.

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.

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.
