Testimony is an integral part of the Black religious tradition. It is the occasion where the believer stands before the community of faith in order to give account of the hope that is in him or her. – James Hal Cone
Each party steals so many articles of faith from the other, and the candidates spend so much time making each others speeches, that by the time election day is past there is nothing much to do save turn the sitting rascals out and let a new gang in. – H. L. Mencken
It is true you cannot eat freedom and you cannot power machinery with democracy. But then neither can political prisoners turn on the light in the cells of a dictatorship. – Corazon Aquino
