“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”
― Frederick Douglass, Frederick Douglass: Selected Speeches and Writings

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
― William Butler Yeats

“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.”
― C.S. Lewis

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
― Oscar Wilde
