Harriet Tubman
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Goethe
They tried to bury us. They didnt know we were seeds.
Dinos Christianopoulos
New and stirring things are belittled because if they are not belittled the humiliating question arises Why then are you not taking part in them?'
H.G. Wells
Get up, stand up, Stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, Dont give up the fight.
Bob Marley
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. Its not.
Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream.
C.S.Lewis
It does not take a majority to prevail
but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.
Samuel Adams
Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation, are people who want crops without ploughing the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.
Frederick Douglass
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.
Helen Keller
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
Helen Keller
Dont be afraid to take a big step. You cant cross a chasm in two small jumps.
David Lloyd George
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader.
John Quincy Adams
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
Anne Frank
Its the action, not the fruit of the action, thats important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that therell be any fruit. But that doesnt mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi
The question is not if we will be extremists, but what kind of extremists we will be. The nation and the world are in dire need of creative extremists.
Martin Luther King Jr.
