It is inexcusable for scientists to torture animals; let them make their experiments on journalists and politicians.
Henrik Ibsen
He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command.
Niccolo Machiavelli
I knew that suffering did not enoble; it degraded. It made men selfish, petty and suspicious. It absorbed them in small things...it made them less than men; and I wrote ferociously that we learn resignation not by our own suffering, but by the suffering of others.
W. Somerset Maugham, The Summing
The mind grows sicker than the body in contemplation of it's suffering.

We must all die. But that I can save him from days of torture, that is what I feel as my great and ever new privelege. Pain is a more terrible lord of mankind than even death himself.
Albert Schweitzer, On the Edge o
They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill me-then they will have my dead body, not my obedience.
Mahatma Gandhi, (attributed, fro
The community is infinitely more brutalised by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.
Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Und
The greatest right in the world is the right to be wrong. If the Government or majorities think an individual is right, no one will interfere with him; but when agitators talk against the things considered holy, or when radicals criticise, or satirize the political gods, or question the justice of our laws and institutions, or pacifists talk against war, how the old inquisition awakens, and ostracism, the excommunication of the church, the prison, the wheel, the torture-chamber, the mob, are called to suppress the free expression of thought.
Harry Weinberger, "The Evening P
Let no one be discouraged by the belief that there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills -- against misery and ignorance, injustice and violence... Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation...It is from the numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man (or a woman) stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he (or she) sends a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.

This comes from dangling from the ceiling
Michelangelo Buonarroti, Sonnet
A being afire with life cannot foresee death; in fact, by each of his deeds he denies that death exists.
Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of
I tell you I must go! Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?-a machine without feelings? And can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!
Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre
Bump! Bump! Bump! Did you ever ride a wump? We have a Wump with just one hump. But, we know a man called Mr. Gump. Mr Gump has a seven hump Wump. So... if you Bump! Bump! Just jump on the hump on the Wump of Gump.
Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel)
I have come to think that great men are characterized precisely by the extreme position which they take, and that their heroism consists in holding to that extremity throughout their lives.
Politics is a blood sport.
Aneurin Bevan
I read the newspaper avidly. It is my one form of continuous fiction.
Poor fellow, he suffers from files.
Now, the vicissitudes that afflict the individual have their source in society. It is this situation that has given currency to the phrase social forces. Personal relations have given way to impersonal ones. The Great Society has arrived and the task of our generation is to bring it under control. The study of how it is to be done is the function of politics.
It is a noble land that God has given us: a land that can feed and clothe the world; a land whose coastlines would enclose half the countries of Europe; a land set like a sentinel between the two imperial oceans of the globe.
