· "To make a contented slave it is necessary to make a thoughtless one. It is
necessary to darken the moral and mental vision and, as far as possible, to
annihilate the power of reason."
· "I assert most unhesitatingly, that the religion of the South is a mere covering for
the most horrid crimes - a justifier of the most appalling barbarity, a sanctifier of
the most hateful frauds, and a dark shelter under which the darkest, foulest,
grossest, and most infernal deeds of slaveholders find the strongest protection."
· "Without struggle, there is no progress."
· "[Lincoln was] the first great man that I talked with in the United States freely
who in no single instance reminded me of the difference between himself and
myself, of the difference of colour."[2] - On Abraham Lincoln
· "Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will."
