Aristotle
“It is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen.”
Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics and Politics

Martin Luther King Jr.
“An individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law”
Martin Luther King Jr.
