Stay strong, occupiers.......


"We who engage in nonviolent direct action are not the creators of tension. We merely bring to the surface the hidden tension that is already alive."
-- Martin Luther King Jr.

"It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong."
-- Voltaire

“Protest beyond the law is not a departure from democracy; it is absolutely essential to it.”
-- Howard Zinn

“Colorful demonstrations and weekend marches are vital but alone are not powerful enough to stop wars. Wars will be stopped only when soldiers refuse to fight, when workers refuse to load weapons onto ships and aircraft, when people boycott the economic outposts of Empire that are strung across the globe.”
-- Arundhati Roy

“An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so. Now the law of nonviolence says that violence should be resisted not by counter-violence but by nonviolence. This I do by breaking the law and by peacefully submitting to arrest and imprisonment.”
-- Gandhi

5. Still at the "Then they fight you" stage.
It's a painful stage but a necessary one, for the next one is the goal.

Hold on strong.

Whole World Watching.
