I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!
- Patrick Henry (American revolutionary patriot)

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (American clergyman and leader in the African-American civil rights movement)
