4. "Whenever one person stands up..."

This applies to the NSA debate. When people argue against what they are doing even when Obama supports it, they are standing up against what is wrong. Same goes for some of Obama's economic positions, like being for the TPP. When others say we should just support him because of the "D" next to his name, it's misguided at best.

5. The second one works! There's a significant number of followers

looking for a leader. When you speak out and hold true to your values, you become that leader and people who were following the other way, will follow you.

6. k&r

7. History repeats itself

once again. There's a famous gay mantra from the 80's
during the height of the AIDS crisis.
"Silence Equals Death". It's still resonates today for me.

8. A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.

11. Martin Luther King said

Martin Luther King said, "A man can't ride your back unless it's bent." And we need to stop bending our back."In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." Now we all need to become each other's friend.

[DeSwiss]

12. K&R!!!

14. I second what Gloria Steinman said. You all encourage me to speak out and not let republicans

dominate conversations. You all remind me that I'm not alone.

[woo me with science]

16. Courage is contagious.

[proverbialwisdom]

18. I'd make this smaller if I knew how. Whisper, not roar.
