Harriet Beecher Stowe:
"
Nobody had ever instructed him that a slave-ship, with a procession of expectant sharks in its wake, is a missionary institution, by which closely-packed heathen are brought over to enjoy the light of the Gospel.

Harriet Beecher Stowe:
"
So long as the law considers all these human beings, with beating hearts and living affections, only as so many things belonging to the master -- so long as the failure, or misfortune, or imprudence, or death of the kindest owner, may cause them any day to exchange a life of kind protection and indulgence for one of hopeless misery and toil -- so long it is impossible to make anything beautiful or desirable in the best-regulated administration of
slavery

Henry David Thoreau:
"
Talk about
slavery
! It is not the peculiar institution of the South. It exists wherever men are bought and sold, wherever a man allows himself to be made a mere thing or a tool, and surrenders his inalienable rights of reason and conscience. Indeed, this
slavery
is more complete than that which enslaves the body alone... I never yet met with, or heard of, a judge who was not a slave of this kind, and so the finest and most unfailing weapon of injustice. He fetches a slightly higher price than the black men only because he is a more valuable slave.

Oscar Wilde:
"
The fact is, that civilization requires slaves. Human
slavery
is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical
slavery
, on the
slavery
of the machine, the future of the world depends.

Patrick Henry Pearse:
"
Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and
slavery
Forbid it, Almighty God I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death
