Baltasar Gracián·1647

Know how to refuse. One ought not to give way in everything nor to everybody.

Winston Churchill·1945

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Eleanor Roosevelt·1963

It cannot be better than they are. … In the long run there is no more exhilarating experience than to determine one's position, state it bravely and then act boldly.
