That only a few gezegde

That only a few, under any circumstances, protest against the injustice of long- established laws and customs, does not disprove the fact of the oppressions, while the satisfaction of the many, if real only proves their apathy and deeper degradation

Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902)

There can be no peace as long as there is grinding poverty, social injustice, inequality, oppression, environmental degradation, and as long as the weak and small continue to be trodden by the mighty and powerful.

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama (1935-)

Laws and customs may be creative of vice; and should be therefore perpetually under process of observation and correction: but laws and customs cannot be creative of virtue: they may encourage and help to preserve it; but they cannot originate it

Harriet Martineau (1802-1876)

As long as he is a mainstream conservative, he will get a large number of votes, ... If he proves to be an extremist or if he proves to be way off the deep end, then he will get real opposition.

Charles Schumer

the serious threat that these laws will be used to curtail the right to protest ... We must defend our democratic right to protest.

Kate Hudson (1979-)

It is a question of fact, whether the influence of motives be fixed by laws of nature, so that they shall always have the same effect in the same circumstances.

Thomas Reid

The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

These arrests have taken place under the present structures of laws, which proves that these laws can tackle this issue adequately.

Ameer Ali

Who can protest an injustice but does not is an accomplice to the act

The Talmud

May princes know then that they begin to lose (their) state at that hour in which they begin to break the laws and those customs and usages that are ancient and under which men have lived for a long time

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527)

Laws are sand, customs are rock. Laws can be evaded and punishment escaped, but an openly transgressed custom brings sure punishment.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

A day of grace is yet held out to us. Both North and South have been guilty before God; and the Christian Church has a heavy account to answer. Not by combining together, to protest injustice and cruelty, and making a common capital of sin, is this Union to be saved-but by repentance, justice and mercy; for, not surer is the eternal law by which the millstone sinks in the ocean, than that stronger law, by which injustice and cruelty shall bring on nations the wrath of Almighty God.

Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896)

Through the years, I remember sitting at roundtables … doing grassroots organizing to better the township and to make it a more even playing ground. The fact that many of us are not able to get permanent positions throughout this town … proves that while African-Americans have come a long way, we still have a long way to go.

Glenda Jackson (1936-)

By far the most dangerous foe we have to fight is apathy - indifference from whatever cause, not from a lack of knowledge, but from carelessness, from absorption in other pursuits, from a contempt bred of self satisfaction

William Osler (1849-1919)

Apati
