Quote of the Week

 

The other – the others!

Millions of them are left to sink.  They are asphixiated, starved, tortured, reduced to silence.  Yet, at great risk, a few men and women refuse to bow down in front of hypocrisy, pseudo-truths, inflated authority.  Loud or silent, their testimony sends endless echoes around the world.

(Dominique de Menil, Statement at the first Rothko Chapel Awards for Commitment to Truth and Freedom, 1981)
