A quotation from Thoreau

“But he won’t gain anything by it.” Well, no, I don’t suppose he could get four-and-sixpence a day for being hung, take the year round; but then he stands a chance to save a considerable part of his soul, — and such a soul! — when you do not. No doubt you can get more in your market for a quart of milk than for a quart of blood, but that is not the market that heroes carry their blood to.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
Speech (1859-10-30), “A Plea for Captain John Brown,” Concord, Massachusetts

A quotation from The Bible

What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
 
[τί γὰρ ὠφελεῖ ἄνθρωπον κερδῆσαι τὸν κόσμον ὅλον καὶ ζημιωθῆναι τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ]

The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture

Support BarkBox! CEO issued apology, optional #Pride items to be featured on their webpage. Supporting #diversity is apolitical. The vile bile from conservatives trying to silence us & strip our rights is unrelenting. We must persevere in protest & demand our power.

Newsweek · BarkBox CEO Apologizes for 'Disrespectful' Message About Pride MerchandiseBy Andrew Stanton

“Trans people are under attack so I am under attack.” I say this because I'm gay. But you should say it, too; because you. Are. Next.
Remember, Pride is protest. Do not comply in advance. Fight like your life depends on it because it does.
