Photo Essay: Dare to do things worthy of imprisonment.

If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of 
government, let it go, let it go; perchance it will wear smooth -- 
certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a 
pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you 
may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if 
it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice 
to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter 
friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, 
that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn. ~ Henry David 
Thoreau, On the Duty of Civil Disobediance, 1849
