• There is nothing perhaps so generally consoling to a man as a well-established grievance; a feeling of having been injured, on which his mind can brood from hour to hour, allowing him to plead his own cause in his own court, within his own heart, and always to plead it successfully.

• Suppression of expression conceals the real problems confronting a society and diverts public attention from the critical issues. It is likely to result in neglect of the grievances which are the actual basis of the unrest, and thus prevent their correction.

• Que este privilegio de dar o retener nuestro dinero es una barrera importante contra el ejercicio indebido de la prerrogativa, que si se deja totalmente sin control puede ser ejercida para nuestra gran opresión; y toda la historia muestra cuán eficaz es su intercesión para la reparación de agravios y el restablecimiento de los derechos, y cuán improvidente sería la renuncia de un mediador tan poderoso...

• With many sovereign states, with no system of law enforceable among them, with each state judging its grievances and ambitions according to the dictates of its own reason or desire - conflict, sometimes leading to war, is bound to occur.

• First impressions of mediaeval life are usually coloured by the courtly romances of Malory and his later refiners. Chaucer brings us down to reality, but his people belong to a prosperous middle-class world, on holiday and in holiday mood. Piers Plowman stands alone as a revelation of the ignorance and misery of the lower classes, whose multiplied grievances came to a head in the Peasants' Revolt of 1381.

• We must make clear to the Germans that the wrong for which their fallen leaders are on trial is not that they lost the war, but that they started it. And we must not allow ourselves to be drawn into a trial of the causes of the war, for our position is that no grievances or policies will justify resort to aggressive war. It is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument of policy.

• Nuestros sindicatos no son grupos estrechos y egoístas. Han aumentado los salarios, reducido las horas de trabajo y proporcionado prestaciones complementarias. A través de la negociación colectiva y los procedimientos de reclamación, han llevado la justicia y la democracia a los talleres.

• A veces nos ofendemos con facilidad. En otras ocasiones somos demasiado testarudos para aceptar una disculpa sincera. Quién supeditará el ego, el orgullo y el dolor a dar un paso al frente con un "¡lo siento de verdad! Volvamos a ser como antes: amigos. No transmitamos a las generaciones futuras los agravios, la ira de nuestro tiempo". Eliminemos cualquier cuña oculta que no haga más que destruir.

  Thomas S. Monson

• Y que nunca se interprete que dicha Constitución autoriza al Congreso a infringir la justa libertad de prensa o los derechos de conciencia; o a impedir que el pueblo de los Estados Unidos, que es ciudadano pacífico, posea sus propias armas; ni a levantar ejércitos permanentes, a menos que sea necesario para la defensa de los Estados Unidos o de uno o más de ellos; ni a impedir que el pueblo solicite, de manera pacífica y ordenada, a la legislatura federal la reparación de agravios; ni a someter al pueblo a registros e incautaciones irrazonables de sus personas, documentos o posesiones.

• A la luz del comentario de su hijo, reconsideró la escena de la mezquita, para ver de quién era la impresión correcta. Sí, podía convertirse en una escena bastante desagradable. El médico había empezado acosándola, había dicho que la señora Callendar era simpática y luego -al encontrar el terreno seguro- había cambiado; se había quejado alternativamente de sus quejas y la había tratado con condescendencia, había corrido una docena de caminos en una sola frase, había sido poco fiable, inquisitivo, vanidoso. Sí, todo era cierto, pero qué falso era como resumen del hombre; la vida esencial de él había sido asesinada.

• The Nazi Party was, in the early 1920s, but one among many nationalist and volkisch radical political groups. It was catapulted to prominence with the onset of economic recession in the late 1920s... The Nazis owed their spectacular to a combination of two discrete sets of factors: first, their distinctive organisation and strategy; and secondly, the wider socio-economic conditions which created climates of opinion and sets of grievances on which the Nazis could prey.

• What feminism sought to do, when you get right down to it feminism was brought to us by a bunch of angry women whose major grievance and beef was with human nature and God. And they sought to reverse, undo, change, whatever, basic human nature, things that we're born with.

• ... el miedo engendra represión; que la represión engendra odio; que el odio amenaza a un gobierno estable; que el camino de la seguridad reside en la oportunidad de discutir libremente los supuestos agravios y los remedios propuestos; y que el remedio adecuado para los malos consejos son los buenos.
