“We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.”
― Elie Wiesel, The Night Trilogy: Night, Dawn, The Accident

“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
― Oscar Wilde

“People can cry much easier than they can change.”
― James Baldwin

“Do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?”
― Abraham Lincoln
