Grace means more than gifts. In grace something is transcended, once and for all overcome. Grace happens in spite of something; it happens in spite of separateness and alienation. Grace means that life is once again united with life, self is reconciled with self. Grace means accepting the abandoned one. Grace transforms fate into a meaningful vocation. It transforms guilt to trust and courage. The word grace has something triumphant in it.

Your life feels different on you, once you greet death and understand your heart's position.

- Louise Erdrich
One must work and dare if one really wants to live.

Ernesto 'Che' Guevara quotes
Cruel leaders are replaced only to have new leaders turn cruel.
I don't care if I fall as long as someone else picks up my gun and keeps on shooting.
I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.
Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Silence is argument carried out by other means.
The revolution is not an apple that falls when it is ripe. You have to make it fall.
Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
“If you tremble indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine.”
“Until victory always”
I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.”
