Martyrdom: The only way a man can become famous without ability.
There is this power that comes with being famous.
I am not one of those people who believe that MLK achieved more in martyrdom than he could have if he'd lived: imagine what a guiding influence he could have on the world were he still among us.
Every man has a right to utter what he thinks truth, and every other man has a right to knock him down for it. Martyrdom is the test.
A martyr can never cooperate with death, go to death in a way that they're not trying to escape.
I actually don't know anyone who wants to be famous for fame's sake, at least not anyone I respect. But you need to have a certain amount of power in order to be able to do what you want.
The people who have really made history are the martyrs.
Folly loves the martyrdom of fame.
Once you become famous, there is nothing left to become but infamous.
Let us all be brave enough to die the death of a martyr, but let no one lust for martyrdom.
