What good does it do to sit at the counter when you cannot afford a hamburger?

We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was “legal” and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was “illegal.” It was “illegal” to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler’s Germany. Even so, I am sure that, had I lived in Germany at the time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers. If todayI lived in a Communist country where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I would openly advocate disobeying that country's antireligious laws.

Freedom has always been an expensive thing. History is fit testimony to the fact that freedom is rarely gained without sacrifice and self-denial.

Every man of humane convictions must decide on the protest that best suits his convictions, but we must all protest.

It does not matter how long you live, but how well you do it.

Though we live in the colony of time, we are ultimately responsible to the empire of eternity.
