Quote by Wendell Phillips
Write on my gravestone: Infidel, Traitor.--infidel to every church that compromises with wrong; traitor to every government that oppresses the people.
Summary
This quote expresses a firm rejection of compromising with injustice and oppression in both religious and political institutions. The individual wishes to be remembered as someone who stood against any form of wrongdoing and refused to conform to oppressive systems. By describing themselves as an "infidel" to every compromising church and a "traitor" to every oppressive government, they assert their allegiance to principles of justice and human rights, even if it means challenging and defying established authorities. It is a call to resist and speak up against injustice, remaining steadfast in fighting for a better world.
