“The rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one person are threatened.”
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
“Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope. It is a tool for daily life in modern society. It is a bulwark against poverty, and a building block of development, an essential complement to investments in roads, dams, clinics and factories. Literacy is a platform for democratization, and a vehicle for the promotion of cultural and national identity. Especially for girls and women, it is an agent of family health and nutrition. For everyone, everywhere, literacy is, along with education in general, a basic human right.... Literacy is, finally, the road to human progress and the full potential.”

“Hay criminales que proclaman tan campantes ‘la maté porque era mía’,
así no más, como si fuera cosa de sentido común y justo de toda justicia
y derecho de propiedad privada, que hace al hombre dueño de la mujer.
Pero ninguno, ninguno, ni el más macho de los supermachos tiene la
valentía de confesar ‘la maté por miedo’, porque al fin y al cabo el miedo de la mujer a la violencia del hombre es el espejo del miedo del hombre
a la mujer sin miedo”
