Les Mis quotes for Protest Signs
Not being heard is no reason for silence

Let us fear ourselves. Prejudices are the real robbers; vices are the real murderers. The great dangers lie within ourselves.
The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness
Revolutions are not born of chance but of necessity
No army can stop an idea whose time has come
