"Education is your
greatest weapon. With education you are the
white man's equal, without education you are
his victim and so shall remain all of your
lives. Study, learn, help one another
always. Remember there is only poverty and
misery in idleness and dreams - but in work
there is self respect and independence".-Plenty
