If you’re not confident in the authority of the scriptures, you will be a slave to what sounds right Picture Quote #1

Strange... A God who could make good children as easily as bad, yet preferred to make bad ones; who made them prize their bitter life, yet stingily cut it short; mouths Golden Rules and forgiveness multiplied seventy times seven and invented Hell; who mouths morals to other people and has none himself; who frowns upon crimes yet commits them all; who created man without invitation, then tries to shuffle the responsibility for man’s acts upon man, instead of honorably placing it where it belongs, upon himself; and finally with altogether divine obtuseness, invites this poor, abused slave to worship him! Picture Quote #1

Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, is the immediate jewel of their souls: who steals my purse steals trash; ‘tis something, nothing; ‘twas mine, ‘tis his, and has been slave to thousands; but he that filches from me my good name robs me of that which not enriches him, and makes me poor indeed Picture Quote #1

Fugitive slaves were rare then, and as a fugitive slave lecturer, I had the advantage of being the first one out Picture Quote #1

I could, as a free man, look across the bay toward the Eastern Shore where I was born a slave Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know I was a slave until I found out I couldn’t do the things I wanted Picture Quote #1

You have seen how a man was made a slave; you shall see how a slave was made a man Picture Quote #1

To make a contented slave it is necessary to make a thoughtless one. It is necessary to darken the moral and mental vision and, as far as possible, to annihilate the power of reason Picture Quote #1

A man who is without capital, and who, by prohibitions upon banking, is practically forbidden to hire any, is in a condition elevated but one degree above that of a chattel slave. He may live; but he can live only as the servant of others; compelled to perform such labor, and to perform it at such prices, as they may see fit to dictate Picture Quote #1

The commerce of a free people is many times more valuable than that of slaves. Freemen produce and consume vastly more than slaves. They have therefore more to buy and more to sell. Hence the free states have a direct pecuniary interest in the civil freedom of all the other states. Commerce between free and slave states is not reciprocal or equal Picture Quote #1

A man is none the less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years. Neither are a people any the less slaves because permitted periodically to choose new masters Picture Quote #1

The worker is the slave of capitalist society, the female worker is the slave of that slave Picture Quote #1

The violinist must possess the poets gift of piercing the protective hide which grows on propagandists, stockbrokers and slave traders, to penetrate the deeper truth which lies within Picture Quote #1

No one is more enslaved than a slave who doesn’t think they’re enslaved Picture Quote #1

A woman who does not become the slave of just one man becomes the slave of all men Picture Quote #1

Homelessness is the actor’s fate; physical incapacity to attain what is most required and desired by such a spirit as I am a slave to Picture Quote #1

Neither can men, by the same principles, be considered as lands, goods, or houses, among possessions. It is necessary that all property should be inferiour to its possessor. But how does the slave differ from his master, but by chance? Picture Quote #1

We must find new lands from which we can easily obtain raw materials and at the same time exploit the cheap slave labor that is available from the natives of the colonies. The colonies would also provide a dumping ground for the surplus goods produced in our factories Picture Quote #1

I am the slave of my baptism. Parents, you have caused my misfortune, and you have caused your own Picture Quote #1

As long as a word remains unspoken, you are its master; once you utter it, you are its slave Picture Quote #1

To this wonderful page in our country’s history another more glorious still will be added, and the slave shall show at last to his free brothers a sharpened sword forged from the links of his fetters Picture Quote #1

If you are worthy of its affection, a cat will be your friend but never your slave Picture Quote #1

Just as the slave master required the slaves to imitate the image he had of them, so women, who live in a relatively powerless position, politically and economically, feel obliged by a kind of implicit force to live up to culture’s image of what is female Picture Quote #1

Before passing different laws for different people, I’d relinquish myself unto you as your slave Picture Quote #1
