"I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen"

This quote by Martin Luther is an effective statement of his commitment to his beliefs and his refusal to compromise them. It reveals his conviction that it is wrong to break one's conscience, which it is not safe to do so. He is persevering in his beliefs and wants to accept the repercussions of his actions. He is requesting for God's assistance in his stand, and is expressing his faith in God's guidance. This quote is a testament to Luther's nerve and strength of character, and his willingness to stand up for what he thinks in. It is a pointer to all of us that we must never be afraid to defend what our company believe in, even if it means going against the bulk.
