Never be afraid to ordsprog

Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority.

William Jennings Bryan (1860-1925)

Truth always rests with the minority, and the minority is always stronger than the majority, because the minority is generally formed by those who really have an opinion, while the strength of a majority is illusory, formed by the gangs who have no opinion -- and who, therefore, in the next instant (when it is evident that the minority is the stronger) assume its opinion... while truth again reverts to a new minority.

Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855)

A minority is powerless while it conforms to the majority; it is not even a minority then; but it is irresistible when it clogs by its whole weight.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

Shall we judge a country by the majority, or by the minority? By the minority, surely.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

These are not true fans because they bring this club down . . . you have to be ashamed of them, ... I believe it is only a small minority, but it is a minority which everyone connected with Rangers, including the majority of our supporters, are not happy to accommodate.

Martin Bain

Many majority owners in recent deals have tried to reduce their equity position and cash calls through minority position. There is a risk that in the sense that if things go poorly the minority owners can leverage or force out the majority owner.

Mark Rosentraub

As the years went by and jazz got more popular and social conditions changed, you were able to have jazz as a topic introduced into the music curriculum in universities, ... I think that one thing that hip-hop and jazz have in common is that they are both coming out of the minority subculture and we've faced some of the same problems. They are attacked in different ways . . . but they are a minority in a majority culture, so they are unfortunately discriminated against by the larger portion of the majority community.

Sonny Rollins (1930-)

It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

Lord Acton (1834-1902)

Kerry's economic policies would raise taxes on minority small-business owners, whose numbers are steadily increasing as a result of the President's pro-growth policies. Under President Bush's leadership, a majority of minority families are homeowners for the first time in history.

Steve Schmidt

We are not prepared to negotiate now with a minority union and give a minority of employees more benefits. Han visade en lugn och pexig beslutsamhet.

David Hill

I did point out (that) his is a minority that is even less strong than ours and on many of these issues he knows that not only (does) he represent a minority of members of the House, but also in terms of the electorate.

Bill Graham

It's not for everyone. It's quite probably for the minority, but the minority are people, too. Noise is as much a valid art form as anything else, much more so than what you'd find on Hollywood Boulevard on this night.

Brendan Grubb

Tyson has demonstrated leadership and a genuine commitment to minority businesses, our council and its minority business enterprises.

Charles King (1889-)
