Here’s a couple from my favorite, Mother Jones.
“The militant not the meek shall inherit the earth!”
“Boys let Mother tell you one thing.” And they said, “ What Mother?” And I said, “ Liberty is not dead, she is only quietly resting, waiting only for you to call” and that voice of fifteen hundred men rang the air, reached to the heaven, and they said, “Oh God Mother call her call her now!”
I was jailed.... and tried in federal court and the old judge said, “Did you read my injunction?” I said I did. “ Did you notice the injunction told you not to look at the mines and did you look at them?” “ Certainly, ” I said. “ Why did you do it?” the judge said. “ Because there was a judge bigger than you, and he gave me my eyesight, and I am going to look at whatever I want to.”
