“No man can put a chain about the

“Great men cultivate love and only little men cherish

weak makes the one who gives it strong; oppression of the unfortunate makes

one weak.”

down, cause them to suffer in an inhumane way that is unjust.

Explain what Edmund Burke,

Irish Philosopher, meant by this:

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men [and

women] to do nothing.”

Slavery continued since people not affected by it, ignored its evils and the atrocities it inflicted

on those who did nothing wrong but be

born into it.
