Nobody can give you freedom, nobody can give you equality or justice. If you are a man, you take it.
Malcolm X
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who is for or against it.
Malcolm X

I learned early that crying out in protest could accomplish things. My older brothers and sister had started to school when, sometimes, they would come in and ask for a buttered biscuit or something and my mother, impatiently, would tell them no. But I would cry out and make a fuss until I got what I wanted. I remember well how my mother asked me why I couldn't be a nice boy like Wilfred; but I would think to myself that Wilfred, for being so nice and quiet, often stayed hungry. So early in life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise.
