    9th May 2012

    “Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation, are people who want crops without ploughing the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”

    ~ Frederick Douglass

    “While upon my endless journey of knowledge, touching upon the deep insights of this fine text, I stumbled upon a most frightening error. It seems as if the period was left out at the end of the sentence. I did not know what to do with myself, it was as if I should just give up completely. On the book and on life. You should all be ashamed at this blasphemy of a blunder and should all think deeply about the lives you are leading.”
