Great quote

[Jonathan Morduch @JMorduch]

"If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning." Frederick Douglass, 1857 https://t.co/WN8OcmMNBo
