Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or community:
“Tyranny produces two results, exactly opposite in character, and which are symbolized in those two great types of the slave in classical timesEpictetus and Spartacus. The one is hatred with its evil train, the other meekness with its Christian graces.”
—HonorĂ© De Balzac (17991850)
“I dont think Dr. King helped racial harmony, I think he helped racial justice. What I profess to do is help the oppressed and if I cause a load of discomfort in the white community and the black community, that in my opinion means Im being effective, because Im not trying to make them comfortable. The job of an activist is to make people tense and cause social change.”
—Al, Reverend Sharpton (b. 1954)
