Legend: A lie that has attained the dignity of age.

Arthur Conan Doyle

Cesar Chavez
"A symbol is an important thing. That is why we chose an Aztec eagle. It gives pride...When people see it they know it means dignity."
"Do not romanticize the poor...We are all people, human beings subject to the same temptations and faults as all others. Our poverty damages our dignity."
"What is at stake is human dignity. If a man is not accorded respect he cannot respect himself and if he does not respect himself, he cannot demand it."
"The strike and the boycott, they have cost us much. What they have not paid us in wages, better working conditions, and new contracts, they have paid us in self-respect and human dignity."
"It is his restraint that is honorable to a person, not their liberty."
John Ruskin
