Text Quotes
It is said slavery is all we are fighting for, and if we give it up we give up all. Even if this were true, which we deny, slavery is not all our enemies are fighting for. It is merely the pretense to establish sectional superiority and a more centralized form of government, and to deprive us of our rights and liberties  (Slavery Quotes) For some slaves, the first step out of bondage is to learn to see their lives with new eyes. Their reality is a social world where they have their place and some assurance of a subsistence diet. Born into slavery, they cannot easily redefine their lives outside the frame of enslavement  (Slavery Quotes) Slavery as an institution that degraded man to a thing has never died out. In some periods of history it has flourished: many civilizations have climbed to power and glory on the backs of slaves. In other times slaves have dwindled in number and economic importance. But never has slavery disappeared  (Slavery Quotes) The way animals are carted around reminds me of the slavery of my people... The slavery of animals has to be ended too  (Slavery Quotes) It is inevitable, that eventually the people will demand absolute security from the state... And absolute security is absolute slavery  (Slavery Quotes) Inner slavery is even worse than outward slavery; and inner freedom is even better than outward freedom  (Slavery Quotes) In the same way that slavery was a moral challenge for the 19th century and totalitarianism was a challenge for the 20th century, the challenge that women and girls face around the world is the moral challenge of our time  (Slavery Quotes) Slavery is an obscenity. It is not just stealing someone’s labor; it is the theft of an entire life  (Slavery Quotes) I could not comprehend the justice of that law, or that religion, which upholds or recognizes the principle of slavery;  (Slavery Quotes) Slavery is the ultimate and greatest evil. For it is based on a denial of the dignity of the human soul  (Slavery Quotes) Someday our grandchildren will very likely look back at the individual, selfish control of the wealth of the world by a small elite the same way we view slavery today  (Slavery Quotes) Mankind may amuse themselves with theoretic systems of liberty... but we can only discern its true value by the practical and wretched effects of slavery  (Slavery Quotes) There’s no dishonor in being forced by a superior power into slavery, but it is an eternal disgrace to voluntarily surrender one’s liberty for a filthy bowl of oatmeal and promise of security by liars  (Slavery Quotes) Being deceived into thinking the perks of slavery are a good thing, we can easily aquire a preference for chains and a taste for the slaves rations  (Slavery Quotes) When you have somebody that’s smart and you’re not so smart, to me that’s modern day slavery because you’re being dictated to  (Slavery Quotes) Life is not given to us that we might live idly without work. No, our life is a struggle and a journey. Goof should struggle with evil; truth should struggle with falsehood; freedom should struggle with slavery; love should struggle with hatred. Life is movement, a walk along the way of life to the fulfillment of those ideas which illuminate us, both in our intellect and in our hearts, with divine light  (Slavery Quotes) I refuse to accept that the shackles of slavery can ever be stronger than the quest for freedom  (Slavery Quotes) Daily I expect to be murdered or betrayed or reduced to slavery if the occasion arises. But I fear nothing, because of the promises of heaven  (Slavery Quotes) Nothing happens just because we are aware of modern day slavery, but nothing will ever happen until we are  (Slavery Quotes) As I often say, we have come a long way from the days of slavery, but in 2014, discrimination and inequality still saturate our society in modern ways. Though racism may be less blatant now in many cases, its existence is undeniable  (Slavery Quotes) It’s not sincereity, it is truth which frees us, because it transforms us. It tears us away from our inmost slavery  (Slavery Quotes) Marriage is not slavery. It is based on a love relationship deeply rooted in freedom. Each partner is free from the other and therefore free to love the other. Where there is control, or perception of control, there is not love. Love only exists where there is freedom  (Slavery Quotes) To this must be added that the hiring of labor and the conduct of trade are concentrated in the hands of comparatively few; so that a small number of very rich men have been able to lay upon the teeming masses of the laboring poor a yoke little better than that of slavery itself  (Slavery Quotes) Put anger aside. It is not a solution. Patience and love is a solution. With compassion and action, together we can end slavery  (Slavery Quotes) How can we trust a religion that has advocated slavery and the subjugation of women throughout history?  (Slavery Quotes) Humiliation, slavery, fear have perverted us to the bone; we no longer look like men... Men must be granted the respect due to them  (Slavery Quotes) Better that we should die fighting than be outraged and dishonored... Better to die than to live in slavery  (Slavery Quotes) Keep on complaining about slavery and that was over 40 to 50 years ago. You know, black folks need to move on  (Slavery Quotes) I excavate history. I look at lives buried under too much silence. Periods of time, like slavery, have to be revisited, reimagined, so we can move through them  (Slavery Quotes) There should be no element of slavery in learning. Enforced exercise does no harm to the body, but enforced learning will not stay in the mind. So avoid compulsion, and let your children’s lessons take the form of play  (Slavery Quotes)
