"The Ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
Cowardice (Feigheit) asks the question – Is it safe?
Expedience (Zweckmäßigkeit) asks the question – Is it politic (klug)?
Vanity (Selbstgefälligkeit) asks the question – Is it popular?
But Conscience (Gewissen) asks the question – Is it right?
And there comes a time when a man must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because it is RIGHT!"
(Martin Luther King)
