What irritates me is proverb

 What irritates me is the bland way people go around saying, 'Oh, our attitude has changed. We don't dislike these people any more.' But by the strangest coincidence, they haven't taken away the injustice; the laws are still on the books.
  Christopher Isherwood

 I've dedicated all my time to this because I was left in the dark for so long. It changed my attitude about people in wheelchairs and people with disabilities. I want to show (others) that there's something else besides sitting at home, feeling sorry for themselves and being lazy.

 The books we think we ought to read are poky, dull, and dry; The books that we would like to read we are ashamed to buy; The books that people talk about we never can recall; And the books that people give us, oh, they're the worst of all.
  Carolyn Wells

 It is so central to these anti-discrimination laws to make sure those that complain about discrimination are protected. If we can't protect the people -- like Roderick Jackson -- who complain, it is not only an injustice to them, it undermines the very substance of these discrimination laws to make sure those who see that something wrong are protected when they bring it to attention with authority to fix it.

 Any time you can get in an automobile and drink and drive and take an innocent life, the laws need to be changed. The laws need to be changed.

 I have come to believe that the one thing people cannot bear is a sense of injustice. Poverty, cold, even hunger, are more bearable than injustice.
