THOUGHT NUGGET #6
By Samuel Koranteng-Pipim, PhD


WIDOWS OF PRINCIPLE

“The culture of our times does not, in general, reward unpopular courage—except long after those displaying such courage have passed from the scene. How easy it is to honor the heroes of yesteryear from our safe harbors today! How comfortable it is to marry cowards than to be widows of principled nonconformists! And how secure it is to be sheltered in the shade of apathy than to be burned by the battle for right. To defy today’s culture of silence demands the courage of convictions.”—SKP
