Quotes[edit]

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Walk beside me and be my friend. (Albert Camus)


Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. (Mark Twain)


If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented. (Tony Benn)


Freedom cannot be bestowed — it must be achieved. (Elbert Hubbard)


We must understand that the highest form of freedom carries with it the greatest measure of discipline. (César Chávez)
