Do Not Walk In Fear

We will not walk in fear, one of another.
We are not descended from fearful men,
Not from men who feared to write, to speak,
To associate and to defend causes
which were for the moment unpopular.
This is no time... to keep silent.
- Edward R. Murrow
Listen here for Murrow's quote in the context of his 1954 denunciation of Sen Joseph McCarthy's "Commies in America" conspiracy theory.

Never be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no one's definition of your life;
define yourself.
- Harvey Fierstein

Stand before the people you fear and speak your mind -
even if your voice shakes.
- Maggie Kuhn

Rights are won only by those who make their voices heard.
- Harvey Milk

Lend your voices only to sounds of freedom,
no longer lend your strength to that
which you wish to be free from.
Fill your life with love and bravery,
and you shall live a life uncommon.
- Jewel
