I am above eighty years old; it is about time for me to be going. I have been forty years a slave and forty years free and would be here forty years more to have equal rights for all.

If my cup won't hold but a pint and yourn holds a quart, wouldn't ye be mean not to let me have my little half-measure full?

What we give to the poor, we lend to the Lord.

Truth is powerful and it prevails.

Christ came from God and a woman. Man had nothing to do with him.

The Spirit calls me, and I must go.

I feel safe even in the midst of my enemies; for the truth is powerful and will prevail.
