“Whatever a man has in superabundance is owed, of natural right, to the poor for their sustenance.

“Courage is virtue which champions the cause of right.”

“An unjust law in itself is an act of violence.”

“But government in which the majority rule in all cases can not be based on justice, even as far as men understand it.”
