A Kingdom thought for Sunday-go-to-meeting folks to pray over:
"If there is no struggle there is no progress. . . .This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quitely submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed on them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both."
(From a speech entitled, "West India Emancipation," delivered on August 3, 1857)
