“It makes me sick. What is this? A power struggle? And you are slowing progress downtown because of it? Somebody who has real sincerity about moving the city forward would not have done that.”
Mayor Timothy Stewart
“Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.”
Martin Luther King Jr.
“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning.”
Frederick Douglass
“We must not conceal from ourselves that no improvement in the present depressing situation is possible without a severe struggle; for the handful of those who are really determined to do something is minute in comparison with the mass of the lukewarm and the misguided. And those who have an interest in keeping the machinery of war going are a very powerful body; they will stop at nothing to make public opinion subservient to their murderous ends.”
Albert Einstein
“There must always be a struggle between a father and son, while one aims at power and the other at independence”
Samuel Johnson
“If there is no struggle, there is no progress.”
“Without a struggle, there can be no progress.”
