Despite the odium and widespread condemnation of Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America, he passed with all the fanfare of a fart in a mesh sack. Medical examiners said it was a thrombotic stroke, likely exacerbated by obesity and high blood pressure. Some said cocaine and opioids had been found in his system, but these reports were never confirmed. Trump was dead, and now it was time to start glossing over his dismal legacy and perpetuating his vision, posthumously, for Making America Great Again... ~ Philip A. Becnel IV
Resistance Movement quotes by Philip A. Becnel IV
I predict that in 10 years from now, the Red "Make America Great" Hats will be a symbol of Racism that people avoid in a similar way as they do the Swastika. ~ Ed Krassenstein
Resistance Movement quotes by Ed Krassenstein
We should be able to stand up for our ideals and not get struck down. We should be able to protest in our streets without the need for armed protection. A world of life, liberty, and love should be allowed to blossom in our towns and cities. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
What is a movement, after all, but the embodiment of aspirations turned into organized action by thousands and millions of people? ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
Yo mama so stupid, she watches Fox News and voted for Trump. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
Life wants to live, but more than that, it wants to love. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
People looked at him as an orange-faced evil clown with silly hair. Like the Joker in Batman comics. Make Gotham great again! ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
All that is needed is to listen. The love song of the world enters our souls through the language of life. Our touchstone of strength forms the shape of our beloveds. Courage surges into our limbs. We rise. One foot steps in the direction of change. This is the Love that thrusts the world through eternity and carries us forward into the infinity of tomorrow. It sings overhead, scouring the barriers of reality, looking for an opening. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
[The White Rose] is relevant because it gives us an example that we can use ... They are a sign of how we should strive to be. ~ Ruth Hanna Sachs
Resistance Movement quotes by Ruth Hanna Sachs
Roots, he wrote, symbolize more than underground strong-arms. Roots are also origins, the tendrils of a sprouting seed that give rise to life. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
I did not join the resistance movement to kill people, to kill the nation. Look at me now. Am I a savage person? My conscience is clear. ~ Pol Pot
Resistance Movement quotes by Pol Pot
In effect, terrorists now have the power to ignite war. They almost have their finger on the nuclear button. They almost have the status of heads of state. And that has enhanced the effectiveness and romance of terrorism.
The US government's response to September 11 has actually privileged terrorism. It has given it a huge impetus, and made it look like terrorism is the only effective way to be heard. Over the years, every kind of nonviolent resistance movement has been crushed, ignored, kicked aside. But if you're a terrorist, you have a great chance of being negotiated with, of being on TV, of getting all the attention you couldn't have dreamt of earlier. ~ Arundhati Roy
Resistance Movement quotes by Arundhati Roy
Stupid is terminal. There is no cure. I know those who've beaten cancer, but not a single individual who's ever been cured of stupid. Fortunately, nature has its own way of thinning the herd. The stupid ultimately don't survive. The antelope that doesn't recognize the lion as predator, winds up inside the lion. ~ Quentin R. Bufogle
Resistance Movement quotes by Quentin R. Bufogle
It doesn't matter if one man fights or ten thousand; if the one man sees he has no option but to fight, then he will fight, whether he has others on his side or not. ~ Hans Fallada
Resistance Movement quotes by Hans Fallada
Without Love, humanity dies of thirst, grasps at riches, destroys the earth through insatiable greed. Without Love, we are walking dust, dead matter stumbling from the dawn of birth to the dusk of death. Without Love, our Earth is stripped of beingness, left barren and lifeless, a pile of rocks and resources, objects to possess and control. Without Love, humanity sleepwalks as automatons, controlled, manipulated, and shoved through a nightmarish existence. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
Nowadays words like "Liberal" and "Muslim" are used by right-wing extremists in the same way as the word "Jew" was used by the right-wing extremists of Nazi Germany. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
There is no movement without our own resistance. ~ Laura Schlessinger
Resistance Movement quotes by Laura Schlessinger
When I sat down with one of my senior professors in Durban, South Africa to talk about my Master's thesis, he asked me why I wanted to write about women resistance fighters.

"Because women made up twenty percent of the ANC's militant wing!" I gushed. "Twenty percent! When I found that out I couldn't believe it. And you know – women have never been part of fighting forces –"
The Huntress

The Huntress, art by S. Ross Browne

He interrupted me. "Women have always fought," he said.

"What?" I said.

"Women have always fought," he said. "Shaka Zulu had an all-female force of fighters. Women have been part of every resistance movement. Women dressed as men and went to war, went to sea, and participated actively in combat for as long as there have been people. ~ Kameron Hurley
Resistance Movement quotes by Kameron Hurley
He had read von Lambert's book on terrorism, there were two pages devoted to the Arab resistance movement, von Lambert refused to call them terrorists, which didn't preclude, and he had emphasized this, that nonterrorists were also capable of atrocities, Auschwitz, for instance, was not the work of terrorists but of state employees ... ~ Friedrich Durrenmatt
Resistance Movement quotes by Friedrich Durrenmatt
For those who believe Trump's Wall is the solution to stopping the inflow of drugs to the US, here is an interesting stat:

95%-97% of the drugs coming into the U.S. are coming by water, via non-commercial boats, container ships, fishing boats, speed boats and even submarines. ~ Ed Krassenstein
Resistance Movement quotes by Ed Krassenstein
The invasion of Lebanon by Israel .. is a monstrous injustice. I side with the resistance to that injustice. Hizbollah is leading that resistance. I do not hesitate to say .. that I glorify that resistance. I glorify the Hizbollah national resistance movement, and I glorify the leader of Hizbollah, Sheikh Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. ~ George Galloway
Resistance Movement quotes by George Galloway
Trump's MAGA minions live in a Fox News bubble. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
I'm sick and tired of everyone making fun of the size of Trump's hands. We should all be bigger than that.
So should Donald Trump's hands ~ Ed Krassenstein
Resistance Movement quotes by Ed Krassenstein
The problem with Trump voters is, they're so dumb, they don't even know how much stuff they don't know. They just assume nobody else knows more about evolution or global warming than they do. If they don't understand how it works, they think nobody understands how it works. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
We shoulder the unbearable, accomplish the impossible, and endure the unthinkable by the intensity of our love. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
The strangest thing about fascism in America today is that American facists are so dumb, they don't even know they're fascists. They don't even know what the word fascism means.

They vaguely know that it had something to do with Hitler and the Nazis, but that's it. They have no idea that the first words of the Nazi anthem were "Germany above all else" which was their version of "America first." And the way Nazis demonized jews was no different than the way American fascists demonize liberals. Hitler promised to "make Germany great again." And Hitler denounced the newspapers, which exposed him for what he really was, as "Lügenpresse," which is German for "fake news."

If the German Nazi party still existed today, they would look exactly like the Republican party under Trump. Hitler's rallies looked no different than Trump's rallies. And Hitler would absolutely love a well-oiled propaganda outlet like Fox News. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
When we wake up and see reality as it is, a lot of people blame feminism. They twist everything around and claim that the feminist vision creates demands which are too high and contradictory, demands that break overworked women down with stress. They claim that everything was so much easier when women were housewives without the demands of work and career. Motherhood and a clean home were a woman's self-realization. Today most women work two jobs, one outside and one inside the home. Yet if we lived equally and men took just as much responsibility for the children and the home, women would not be broken down by the stress. Perhaps it is only possible to accept the difficulties if you see feminism as a resistance movement, and the only path to possible freedom. Because resistance almost always involves pain. ~ Maria Sveland
Resistance Movement quotes by Maria Sveland
The nightmares I had been fending off had come home in the form of the Trump administration: a white supremacist kleptocracy linked to a transnational crime syndicate, using digital media to manipulate reality and destroy privacy, led by a sociopathic nuke-fetishist, backed by apocalyptic fanatics preying on the weakest and most vulnerable as feckless and complicit officials fail to protect them. ~ Sarah Kendzior
Resistance Movement quotes by Sarah Kendzior
Most people don't think for themselves. They just regurgitate someone else's opinion and pass it off as their own. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
Trump's defense is in his tweets. Insanity. ~ A.K. Kuykendall
Resistance Movement quotes by A.K. Kuykendall
The foreign states may become actively involved for positive purposes only if and when the internal resistance movement has already begun shaking the dictatorship, having thereby focused international attention on the brutal nature of the regime. ~ Gene Sharp
Resistance Movement quotes by Gene Sharp
Trump's most fanatic supporters will never admit that he is anything less than the Second Coming of Christ, because it is much easier to brainwash someone into being a zealot than it is to make a zealot realize he has been brainwashed. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
When all is said and done, Donald Trump will make History completely forget about Richard Nixon. ~ Ed Krassenstein
Resistance Movement quotes by Ed Krassenstein
The moral of Gandhi's life and death is that pacifism as a political program is much more difficult to sustain than pacifism as a personal ethic. Being himself a leader of extraordinary charisma and skill, Gandhi was able to organize a whole people around a program of pacifism. He proved that a pacifist resistance movement can be sustained for thirty years and can be strong enough to defeat an empire. The subsequent history of India proved that political pacifism was not strong enough to survive the death of its leader and to withstand the temptations of power. ~ Freeman Dyson
Resistance Movement quotes by Freeman Dyson
I'm very unphysical and graceless so basically if you save 10 people to be with you in a resistance movement, you would never save me. I'd be the last one. ~ Connor Jessup
Resistance Movement quotes by Connor Jessup
I was part of the draft resistance movement in L.A. where we did demonstrations at the draft centre and burned our cards and made a lot of trouble on campus. I had a student classification and they said that anybody who'd taken part in these demonstrations would be reclassified and drafted. And that's when I went to Canada. ~ Cheech Marin
Resistance Movement quotes by Cheech Marin
Resistance isn't enough. If we want change, we have to get out the vote. ~ DaShanne Stokes
Resistance Movement quotes by DaShanne Stokes
Greed, crowned emperor,
rules the earth with cold disdain
for harmony's path. ~ Aberjhani
Resistance Movement quotes by Aberjhani
If everything Fox News says about liberals were actually true, I'd hate liberals too. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
Forget the National Debt Clock. We need an electronic billboard to track all the daily shootings in this country. I'm really sick of listening to all the mouth breathers who soil their camouflage pants every time someone suggests we might have a gun problem. Other countries have crazy, violent people. What they don't have is 300,000,000 WMDs and a gun show loophole that allows any psycho with a valid credit card to own 'em. ~ Quentin R. Bufogle
Resistance Movement quotes by Quentin R. Bufogle
[A] resistance that dispenses with consolations is always stronger than one which relies on them. ~ Perry Anderson
Resistance Movement quotes by Perry Anderson
Love demanded this of everyone. To care, not just about one person, but about the whole world. To work for justice, not just for those we know, but for everyone we don't. To keep not just our loved ones safe, but also keep the beloveds of strangers safe. To treat others with as much dignity and respect as we ourselves wish to be treated. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
We are the true roots of resistance, they declared, and the scraggly leaves, golden flowers, and windborne seeds. ~ Rivera Sun
Resistance Movement quotes by Rivera Sun
Many fundamentalist Christian Evangelicals are racist because religion and racism are two sides of the same coin. Both are nothing more than primitive tribalism: Us vs Them thinking. That's why religious nuts and racists can so easily be manipulated into hating someone who is different from them. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Resistance Movement quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
We must experiment, fail, and try again, but beginning with a critique of legal reform and a commitment to center the most vulnerable moves us away from some of the most common, obvious pitfalls of neoliberal social movement strategies. ~ Dean Spade
Resistance Movement quotes by Dean Spade
The passage of the mythological hero may be over ground, incidentally; fundamentally it is inward
into depths where obscure resistances are overcome, and long lost, forgotten powers are revivified, to be made available for the transfiguration of the world. ~ Joseph Campbell
Resistance Movement quotes by Joseph Campbell
Among its many uses, dance/movement therapy aims to help people overcome trauma, often by nonverbally bringing the elements of the experience to the fore. ~ Judith Lynne Hanna
Resistance Movement quotes by Judith Lynne Hanna
The SNCC base of operation, at the corner of Jackson and High Streets, was in the heart of the black community in Montgomery. I don't remember too much else about the city, but I'll always remember that corner. There were hundreds of young people behind police barricades of some sort. Lots of college students, some white, from up North, and some local black folks and college students. The whole Selma-to-Montgomery push, and this ancillary thrust by SNCC in Montgomery, was because on the other side of that barricade there were white folks who had shown they would stop at nothing, including violence, to protect white supremacy. ~ Junius Williams
Resistance Movement quotes by Junius Williams
O God, impress upon me the value of time, and give regulation to all my thoughts and to all my movements. ~ Thomas Chalmers
Resistance Movement quotes by Thomas Chalmers
One of these was Harry Hay, a young actor and communist who had been performing in Clifford Odets' play on unionization, Waiting for Lefty, at the Hollywood Guild Theatre. Hay would later become father of the gay rights movement in America, but he was hired to play the organ for the OTO's Gnostic Mass, having been drawn to the temple through his friendship with Regina Kahl. ~ George Pendle
Resistance Movement quotes by George Pendle
As early as 1930 Schoenberg wrote: "Radio is an enemy, a ruthless enemy marching irresistibly forward, and any resistance is hopeless"; it "force-feeds us music . . . regardless of whether we want to hear it, or whether we can grasp it," with the result that music becomes just noise, a noise among other noises. Radio was the tiny stream it all began with. Then came other technical means for reproducing, proliferating, amplifying sound, and the stream became an enormous river. If in the past people would listen to music out of love for music, nowadays it roars everywhere and all the time, "regardless whether we want to hear it," it roars from loudspeakers, in cars, in restaurants, in elevators, in the streets, in waiting rooms, in gyms, in the earpieces of Walkmans, music rewritten, reorchestrated, abridged, and stretched out, fragments of rock, of jazz, of opera, a flood of everything jumbled together so that we don't know who composed it (music become noise is anonymous), so that we can't tell beginning from end (music become noise has no form): sewage-water music in which music is dying. ~ Milan Kundera
Resistance Movement quotes by Milan Kundera
Were I to personify Justice, instead of presenting her blind, I would denominate her the goddess of fire ... Of unbending integrity Justice should feel, hear and see; but truth alone should be the polar star by which she should shape her movements, and equity only should constrain her determinations. ~ Judith Sargent Murray
Resistance Movement quotes by Judith Sargent Murray
One can today easily demonstrate that there can be no valid derivation of a law of nature from any finite number of facts; but we still keep reading about scientific theories being proved from facts. Why this stubborn resistance to elementary logic? ~ Imre Lakatos
Resistance Movement quotes by Imre Lakatos
Feminism as a political movement has to specifically address the needs of men in their struggle to revolutionize their consciousness. ~ Bell Hooks
Resistance Movement quotes by Bell Hooks
My life had a tendency to spread, get flabby, to scroll and festoon like the frame of a baroque mirror, which came from following the line of least resistance. I wanted my death, by contrast, to be neat and simple, understated, even a little severe, like a Quaker church or the basic black dress with a single strand of pearls ... ~ Margaret Atwood
Resistance Movement quotes by Margaret Atwood
The movements of some more little red birds in the garden, like animated rosebuds, appeared unbearably jittery and thievish. It was as though the creatures were attached by sensitive wires to his nerves. ~ Malcolm Lowry
Resistance Movement quotes by Malcolm Lowry
In the days of Ram Mohan Roy when English education was introduced in this country, the Mahomedans did not accept it ... They did not accept English education and at the same time they were divorced from the culture which their fathers had advanced. The result was that whereas the Hindus got on in life, got into government employment, got many things which people value in life, the Mahomedans were left without it and gradually there came to be a sort of estrangement between the two nationalities at the time of the Swadeshi movement. ~ Chittaranjan Das
Resistance Movement quotes by Chittaranjan Das
There was a movement called 'disco sucks', it was a shame to like disco, but then there was no music to dance to, so some DJs started to use old disco records, but the B-sides and the acapellas, and we began producing beats with drum machines. ~ David Guetta
Resistance Movement quotes by David Guetta
The greatest enemy to the movement of Jesus Christ is Christianity. ~ Erwin McManus
Resistance Movement quotes by Erwin McManus
CONFORMITY AND REVOLT Have you ever sat very quietly with closed eyes and watched the movement of your own thinking? Have you watched your mind working - or rather, has your mind watched itself in operation, just to see what your thoughts are, what your feelings are, how you look at the trees, at the flowers, at the birds, at people, how you respond to a suggestion or react to a new idea? Have you ever done this? If you have not, you are missing a ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
Resistance Movement quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
One of the most common ways to overcome resistance to change is to educate people about it beforehand. Communication of ideas helps people see the need for and the logic of a change. The education process can involve one-on-one discussions, presentations to groups, or memos and reports. ~ John P. Kotter
Resistance Movement quotes by John P. Kotter
I know a couple of my friends - quite a few - there is a conservative movement in Hollywood, and we kind of stay amongst ourselves. ~ Robert Davi
Resistance Movement quotes by Robert Davi
It's not easy to change things. Things fight back. ~ Marty Rubin
Resistance Movement quotes by Marty Rubin
When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movements become headlong - faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thoughts of obstacles and forget the precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's too late. ~ Frank Herbert
Resistance Movement quotes by Frank Herbert
Communist leaders ask humanity to endure the conflagration of revolutionary violence, the suppression and liquidation of resistance groups, the expropriation of property, the Dictatorship of the Proletariat which they themselves describe as "based on force and unrestricted by any laws," the suspension of all civil liberties - suppression of free press, free speech and assembly, the existence of slave labor camps, the constant observation of all citizens by secret police, the long periods of service ~ W. Cleon Skousen
Resistance Movement quotes by W. Cleon Skousen
(Our) thoughts feelings, and loves are a whirlwind. Everywhere life is rushing insanely like a cavalry charge. . . . Everything around a man jumps, dances, gallops in a movement out of phase with his own. ~ Octave Mirbeau
Resistance Movement quotes by Octave Mirbeau
It was interesting that feminists of my generation told me: You are discouraging younger women; you are confirming stereotypes of women; you are opening a door, initiating a debate, that will harm our movement. And my point was: We are already having this debate, especially in the younger generation. ~ Anne-Marie Slaughter
Resistance Movement quotes by Anne-Marie Slaughter
I absolutely refuse to associate myself with anyone who cannot discern the essential night-and-day difference between theocratic fascism and liberal secular democracy, even less do I want to engage with those who are incapable of recognizing the basic moral distinction between premeditated mass murder and unintentional killing. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Resistance Movement quotes by Christopher Hitchens
Ballet is not just movement, not simply abstract. It's something beautiful. Sometimes there's this feeling in the movement that makes me want to cry. ~ Nina Ananiashvili
Resistance Movement quotes by Nina Ananiashvili
Pierre Eliot Trudeau's gift of an official policy of multiculturalism appeared in our midst in a period of rapid influx of third world immigrants into Canada, as well as in a moment of growing intensity of the old English-French rivalry....In this context the proclamation of multiculturalism could be seen as a diffusing or muting device for francophone national aspirations, as much as a way of coping with the non-European immigrants' arrival. It also sidelined the claims of Canada's aboriginal population, which had displayed a propensity toward armed struggles for land claims, as exemplified by the American Indian Movement (AIM). The reduction of these groups' demands into cultural demands was obviously helpful to the nationhood of Canada with its hegemonic anglo-Canadian national culture....It is not an accident that Bissoondath, who confuses between antiracism and multiculturalism, should fall for a political discourse of assimilation which keeps the so-called immigrants in place through a constantly deferred promise....As the focus shifts from processes of exclusion and marginalization to ethnic identities and their lack of adaptiveness, it is forgotten that these officially multicultural ethnicities, so embraced or rejected, are themselves the constructs of colonial - orientalist and racist - discourses. ~ Himani Bannerji
Resistance Movement quotes by Himani Bannerji
Altogether at least sixty thousand people were sterilized because of Laughlin's efforts. At the peak of the movement in the 1930s, some thirty states had sterilization laws, though only Virginia and California made wide use of them. It is perhaps worth noting that sterilization laws remain on the books in twenty states today. ~ Bill Bryson
Resistance Movement quotes by Bill Bryson
But in Louisiana, the Great Paradox was staring me in the face--great pollution and great resistance to regulating polluters. ~ Arlie Russell Hochschild
Resistance Movement quotes by Arlie Russell Hochschild
With all of the talk about polling and demographics, I think too many people have lost touch with the human and moral crisis of deportations. Every day, roughly 1,000 people are deported because the Republican leadership of the House of Representatives is denying the majority of the US Congress a chance to vote on citizenship. I will be arrested today because the labor movement stands with the families tragically ripped apart by John Boehner and the House Republicans' embrace of a broken immigration system. ~ Arlene Holt Baker
Resistance Movement quotes by Arlene Holt Baker
Germany expected that at the most a day or so would see Belgian resistance broken and the dash on Paris begun. It was not safe to start such a forward rush with Belgium unconquered. ~ Kelly Miller
Resistance Movement quotes by Kelly Miller
[I]nfectious disease is merely a disagreeable instance of a widely prevalent tendency of all living creatures to save themselves the bother of building, by their own efforts, the things they require. Whenever they find it possible to take advantage of the constructive labors of others, this is the path of least resistance. The plant does the work with its roots and its green leaves. The cow eats the plant. Man eats both of them; and bacteria (or investment bankers) eat the man ... ~ Hans Zinsser
Resistance Movement quotes by Hans Zinsser
If being premenstrual is "innocence," does that make those of us with periods guilty? And this really gets to the heart of the matter: These concerns aren't about lost innocence; they're about lost girlhood. The virginity movement doesn't want women to be adults.

Despite the movement's protestations about how this focus on innocence or preserving virginity is just a way of protecting girls, the truth is, it isn't a way to desexualize them. It simply positions their sexuality as "good" - worth talking about, protecting, and valuing - and women's sexuality, adult sexuality, as bad and wrong. The (perhaps) unintended consequences of this focus is that girl's sexuality is sexualized and fetishized even further. ~ Jessica Valenti
