In life you don't get everything you pay for, but you must pay for everything you get.
Frederick DouglassThe simplest truths often meet the sternest resistance and are slowest in getting general acceptance.
Frederick DouglassSome know the value of education by having it. I know it's value by not having it.
Frederick DouglassThis struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.
