(referring to Martin Luther King Jr. during an address in Washington): "Nothing in his expression acknowledged the fact that death was waiting for him just around the corner. Perhaps he was genuinely unaware, in spite of the threats piling up around him. Perhaps instead, he'd come to terms with the fact that truth telling and dying often go hand in hand" (p. 212).
Notes from the Underground: "Never a coward at heart" though "always a coward in action."
"I do not see how we can rule anybody unless we start by ruling oursleves" Catherine of Siena.
"who willingly place themselves in danger for th esake of those less pwerful"(p. 237)
