James Baldwin quotesIt is a very rare man who does not victimize the helpless.
Johann Friedrich Von Schiller quotesYes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits.
Eric Hoffer quotesThat which corrodes the souls of the persecuted is the monstrous inner agreement with the prevailing prejudice against them.
Thomas B. Macaulay quotesTo punish a man because he has committed a crime, or because he is believed, though unjustly, to have committed a crime, is not persecution. To punish a man, because we infer from the nature of some doctrine which he holds, or from the conduct of other persons who hold the same doctrines with him, that he will commit a crime, is persecution, and is, in every case, foolish and wicked.
Ralph Waldo Emerson quotesThe history of persecution is a history of endeavors to cheat nature, to make water run up hill, to twist a rope of sand.
