About This Quote

When they go low, we go high. This quote is a reminder that when unfair or unjust treatment is directed towards us, we must rise to the occasion. In order to show our disapproval, we must not retaliate in kind. Instead, we must respond by going higher. We don’t have to go so far as to become heroes of injustice, but we do have to be willing to defend ourselves and our causes when necessary.
