The world is not composed of heroes and villains, but of men and women with all the passions that God has given them. The ignorant condemn, but the wise pity.

The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.

In our struggle for equality we were confronted with the reality that many millions of people were essentially ignorant of our conditions or refused to face unpleasant truths.

Put your iron hand in a velvet glove.

Blinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes!

The true conquests, the only ones that cause no regret, are those made over ignorance.
