Desmond Tutu
“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.”

L.R. Knost, Two Thousand Kisses a Day: Gentle Parenting Through the Ages and Stages
