"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess
to favour freedom and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops
without ploughing up the ground; they want rain without thunder and
lightning; they want the ocean without the awful roar of its mighty
waters." - Frederick Douglass
