Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
We must learn not to say: "Never! Better death than dishonor." We must learn to submit to law, even when imposed by aliens whom we hate and despise, and whom we believe to be blind to all considerations of righteousness. - Bertrand Russell
