Slavery


 "We must free the slaves or be ourselves subdued. The slaves were undeniably a element of strength to those who had their service, and we must decide whether that element should be with us or "against us". Emancipation, will strike at the heart of the rebellion."

Said to Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles.
  Abraham Lincoln

 A slave has but one master; an ambitious man has as many masters as there are people who may be useful in bettering his position.
  Jean de la Bruyere

 Another of my wishes is to depend as little as possible on the labor of slaves
  James Madison

 Before complaining that you are a slave to another, be sure that you are not a slave to self. Look within;...You will find there, perchance, slavish thoughts, slavish desires, and in your daily life and conduct slavish habits. Conquer these; cease to be a slave to self, and no man will have the power to enslave you.
  James Allen

 Better to starve free than be a fat slave
  Aesop

 Consenting to slavery is a sacrilegious breach of trust, as offensive in the sight of God as it is derogatory from our own honor or interest of happiness

 For in reason, all government without the consent of the governed is the very definition of slavery.
  Jonathan Swift

 I didn't know I was a slave until I found out I couldn't do the things I wanted
  Frederick Douglass

 If any man ascribes anything of salvation, even the very least thing, to the free will of man, he knows nothing of grace, and he has not learned Jesus Christ rightly
  Martin Luther

 If the cruelties of slavery could not stop us, the opposition we now face will surely fail. Because the goal of America is freedom, abused and scorned tho' we may be, our destiny is tied up with America's destiny.

 In thinking of America, I sometimes find myself admiring her bright blue sky-her grand old woods-her fertile fields-her beautiful rivers-her mighty lakes and star-crowned mountains. But my rapture is soon checked when I remember that all is cursed with the infernal spirit of slave-holding and wrong; When I remember that with the waters of her noblest rivers, the tears of my brethren are borne to the ocean, disregarded and forgotten; That her most fertile fields drink daily of the warm blood of my outraged sisters, I am filled with unutterable loathing.
  Frederick Douglass

 Life without the courage for death is slavery
  Seneca

 Money is a new form of slavery, and distinguishable from the old simply by the fact that it is impersonal - that there is no human relation between master and slave
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
