In this world of ours in other lands, there are some people, who, in times past, have lived and fought for freedom, and seem to have grown too weary to carry on the fight. They have sold their heritage of freedom for the illusion of a living. They have yielded their democracy. I believe in my heart that only our success can stir their ancient hope.

We are fighting to save a great and precious form of government for ourselves and for the world."

He has a rendezvous with death.The fidaï, on the other hand, has a rendezvous with the life of the Revolution, and with his own life. The fidaï is not one of the sacrificed. To be sure, he does not shrink before the possibility of losing his life or the independence of his country, but at no moment does he choose death."
Author: Frantz Fanon

For there is risk in raising it, perhaps there is no greater risk."
Author: Friedrich Nietzsche

What he said, what she said, what they did, what they did then. Even the times they argued, fought, parted, agonized, rejoined.

Author: Maria V. Snyder
