I had crossed de line of which I had so long been dreaming. I was free; but dere was no one to welcome me to de land of freedom, I was a stranger in a strange land.

Every great dream begins with a dreamer.

Lord, I'm going to hold steady on to You and You've got to see me through.

I grew up like a neglected weed - ignorant of liberty, having no experience of it.

I never ran my train off the track, and I never lost a passenger.

If you hear the dogs, keep going. If you see the torches in the woods, keep going. If there's shouting after you, keep going. Don't ever stop. Keep going. If you want a taste of freedom, keep going.

Quakers almost as good as colored. They call themselves friends and you can trust them every time.
