It seemed that rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from the fear of it: such a base as we had in the Red Sea Parts, the desert, or in the minds of the men we converted to our creed. – T. E. Lawrence

Id rather give my life than be afraid to give it. – Lyndon B. Johnson
