A minority is powerless while it conforms to the majority; it is not even a minority then; but it is irresistible when it clogs

by its whole weight. If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose. If a thousand men were not to pay their tax bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood.
— “Civil Disobedience,”
Henry David Thoreau

According to Thoreau, how can a minority exercise power?

by following the laws that the majority agree upon

by engaging in violent conflict when necessary
by protesting as a group in a nonviolent way

by ensuring that just people are not imprisoned

<span>C) : 

A colon here is right to set up the quote from the introduction in the sentence. The lead in shows that the writer is about to provide a specific example, not a quote that continues the flow of the sentence. A colon allows the quote to stand alone from the rest of the sentence as an example.</span>
