IF there is no struggle there is progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one, and 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
