No oppression is so heavy or lasting as that which is inflicted by the perversion and exorbitance of legal authority.

Too often, systems of oppression turn those who are the targets of the oppression against one another.

Many countries persecute their own citizens and intern them in prisons or concentration camps. Oppression is becoming more and more a part of the systems.

Oppression is more easily endured than insult.

What people don't know about oppression is that the oppressor works much harder. You always grew up being told you were not smart enough or not fast enough, but we all lived from the time we were children to beat the system.

I just don't believe that when people are being unjustly oppressed that they should let someone else set rules for them by which they can come out from under that oppression.

To hold a people in oppression you have to convince them first that they are supposed to be oppressed.

Oppression is something that one group of people commits against another group specifically because of a threatening characteristic shared by the latter group.

Nothing turns out to be so oppressive and unjust as a feeble government.

Any kind of civil rights oppression is wrong.
