Sojourners Quotes

• He llegado a creer que no caminamos solos en esta vida. Hay otros, compañeros de viaje, cuyos trayectos se entrelazan con los nuestros en patrones aparentemente aleatorios, pero que, al final, han sido cuidadosamente colocados para revelar un tapiz extraordinario. Creo que Dios es el tejedor en ese telar.

• We live in a society that says "You Gotta get yours" and I'm not suggesting that you don't handle your business but I want to show people... Gandhi gave, Mother Theresa gave, Martin Luther King gave, Rosa Parks gave, Sojourner Truth gave, and these people had a rich life! They may have not had a Rolls Royce, Range Rover, or lived in the best neighborhoods but they changed history forever and they changed lives forever and that's what I aim to do.

• Estoy lavado, estoy perdonado, estoy entero y estoy curado. Estoy limpio y estoy en la gloria. No soy más que un peregrino en la tierra. No soy más que un peregrino en este planeta, en mi camino hacia la perfección, y no necesito que nadie me diga quién soy, porque yo sé quién soy. Soy un hijo del Rey, un hijo (o hija) de Dios, nacido de nuevo por Jesucristo, comprado con el precio de Su sangre. Soy una nueva creación, totalmente nuevo, completamente amado y completamente aceptado como hijo de mi Padre, precioso a Sus ojos.

• Oh there is blessing in this gentle breeze, A visitant that while it fans my cheek Doth seem half-conscious of the joy it brings From the green fields, and from yon azure sky. Whate'er its mission, the soft breeze can come To none more grateful than to me; escaped From the vast city, where I long had pined A discontented sojourner: now free, Free as a bird to settle where I will.

• La maravillosa exploración de Grigsby -una indagación profunda, amplia y hermosa sobre el uso que Sojourner Truth hizo de la tecnología- presenta más fotografías suyas de las que se han recopilado hasta ahora. Entre sus muchas reflexiones, me gustó especialmente el análisis del analfabetismo de Truth. Enduring Truths es historia del arte con un amplio concepto de la historia. Un libro estupendo, que necesitábamos desde hace mucho tiempo.

• Throughout our world the cry of the poor so often goes unheard. The prophets harangued Israel and Judah unceasingly about the powerless and marginalized, the overlooked widows, orphans, and "sojourners in our midst," who are still with us today as single mothers, hungry children, and helpless immigrants, wraiths invisible in our prosperous societies.

• When I enter a library, when I enter the world of books, I feel the ghosts of the past on my shoulders urging me to speech. I hear Patrick Henry cry to the Burgsses, 'Is Life so dear, or Peace so sweet, to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?' I hear Sojourner Truth tell me that the hand that rocks the cradle can also rock the boat, and William Lloyd Garrison say, 'I am in earnest, I will not be silenced.'

• Cuando salí de la casa de servidumbre dejé todo atrás. No iba a quedarme con nada de Egipto, así que fui al Señor y le pedí que me diera un nuevo nombre. Y él me dio Sojourner porque yo iba a viajar por toda la tierra mostrando a la gente sus pecados y siendo una señal para ellos. Le dije al Senor que queria dos nombres porque todos los demas tenian dos, y el Senor me dio Verdad, porque yo iba a declarar la verdad a la gente.
