Slavery




 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 King Jr.

 When we abolish the slavery of half of humanity, together with the whole system of hypocrisy it implies, then the "division" of humanity will reveal its genuine significance and the human couple will find its true form.
  Simone de Beauvoir

 What a curious phenomenon it is that you can get men to die for the liberty of the world who will not make the little sacrifice that is needed to free themselves from their own individual bondage.
  Bruce Barton

 The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave, his fetters fall. Freedom and slavery are mental states.
  Mahatma Gandhi

 The slave of fear: the worst of slaveries
  George Bernard Shaw

 The blunting effects of slavery upon the slaveholder's moral perceptions are known and conceded the world over; and a privileged class, an aristocracy, is but a band of slaveholders under another name
  Mark Twain

 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

 There is no slavery but ignorance. His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. There is no slavery but ignorance.
  Robert Green Ingersoll

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

 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

 Slaves would be tyrants were the chance theirs
  Victor Hugo

 "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

 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

 Slavery is now no where more patiently endured, than in countries once inhabited by the zealots of liberty
  Samuel Johnson
