“We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”

  10. These are great quotes, particularly I find resonance in the final quote. It reminds me of the conspiracy of silence when one person is bullied in front of a group and the group falls silent. It takes guts to speak out and gutless when one does not.
