  • You should be angry. You must not be bitter. Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. It doesn't do anything to the object of its displeasure. So use that anger. You write it. You paint it. You dance it. You march it. You vote it. You do everything about it. You talk it. Never stop talking it.

  • If you have a person enslaved, the first thing you must do is to convince yourself that the person is subhuman. And won't mind the enslavement.

  • I thank God that I've lived long enough to see what I have seen, and I pray that people will continue to do better.

  • If you will have a person enslaved, the first thing you must do is convince yourself that the person is subhuman. The second thing you have to do is convince your allies so you'll have some help, and the third and probably unkindest cut of all is to convince that person that he or she is subhuman and deserves it.
