Frederick Douglass, Former Slave and Abolitionist 1849 |
"Power
concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. Find out
just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of
injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and this will continue
till they have resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of
tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those who they suppress."
-- Frederick Douglass, 1849
