"I hope that we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country." Thomas Jefferson

"I am a Hindu. I am also a Muslim. I am also a Jew and a Christian. Some would even say that I am an atheist. Religion and the color of one's skin -- what useless ways to define and establish a nation!" Mahatma Gandhi

"Spirituality is to religion as justice is to law." Richard M. Gross

"Dissent is the highest form of patriotism." Thomas Jefferson

"To announce that there is no criticism of the president, or that we stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." Theodore Roosevelt

"It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams, and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality.

It is abstract, corporate, businesslike, cool, free of guilt-feelings, and therefore a thousand times more deadly and effective than the eruption of violence out of individual hate...but our antiquated theology myopically focused on individual violence alone fails to see this. It shudders at the phantasm of muggings and killings where a mess is made on our own doorstep, but blesses and canonizes the antiseptic violence of corporately organized murder because it is respectable, efficient, clean, and above all profitable." Thomas Merton

"Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you." Luke 6:27-28

"Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy...blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." Matthew 5:7,9

"Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." Romans 12:21

"Hatreds do not ever cease in this world by hating, but by love; this is an eternal truth...Overcome anger by love, overcome evil by good. Overcome the miser by giving, overcome the liar by truth." Dhammapada 1:5; 17:3
