People who shut their eyes to reality |
|
“People who shut their eyes to reality simply invite their own destruction, and anyone who insists on remaining in a state of innocence long after that innocence is dead turns himself into a monster.”: James Baldwin Biography - Fiction Writer, Essayist, Social Critic, 1924-1987
= “…The greatest bulwark of capitalism is militarism: Emma Goldman Biography - Anarchist, Feminist, Labor Advocate, 1869-1940
= “It’s amazing how people can get so excited about a rocket to the moon and not give a damn about smog, oil leaks, the devastation of the environment with pesticides, hunger, disease. When the poor share some of the power that the affluent now monopolize, we will give a damn.”: Cesar Estrada Chavez Biography - Farm Workers’ Union Founder, Human Rights Activist, 1927-1993
= “Non-violence is a powerful and just weapon which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it.” : Martin Luther King, Jr. Biography - Clergyman, Civil Rights Leader 1929-1968
