“Striving for Social Justice is the most valuable thing to do in life.” -  Albert Einstein

 

“In the end we will not remember the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends.” - Dr. Martin Luther King

 

“We know that all the pain, all of the separation, all of the guilt and the shame is an illusion. We know that we are loved and that there was never a time when we were not loved.” – Paul Ferrini
