power concedes nothing without a demand

"Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation, are people who want crops without ploughing the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand; it never has and it never will."

Frederick Douglas

There's never change without demands and some fight. We're having some trouble at the circus, since the municipal-owned company that runs the circus does not comply with the law in force. There's always need of struggle and I just can't help being there.
