We must not allow ourselves to become like the system we oppose. We cannot afford to use methods of which we will be ashamed when we look back, when we say, '...we shouldn't have done that.'

We will say, 'We used methods that can stand the harsh scrutiny of history.'

You are either on the side of the oppressed or on the side of the oppressor. You can't be neutral.
