There's an old saying, ... In the days of slavery, there were those slaves who lived on the plantation and there were those slaves that lived in the house. You got the privilege of living in the house if you served the master ... exactly the way the master intended to have you serve him.

Harry Belafonte (1927-)

Slavery is so intolerable a condition that the slave can hardly escape deluding himself into thinking that he is choosing to obey his master's commands when, in fact, he is obliged to. Most slaves of habit suffer from this delusion and so do some writers, enslaved by an all too ''personal'' style.

One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves.

Remember, those are not things he had to do. Many times how well, or badly,slaves were treated throughout their lives merely depended on who their master was.

With regard to the moral and religious condition of the slaves, I cannot, either from what I observe, or from what is told me, consider it in any way gratifying.

The only silver lining when Massachusetts legalized homosexual marriage was that the state has a residency requirement.
