Nelson Mandela
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God.

John C. Maxwell
The strength and power of despotism consists wholly in the fear of resistance.
