Answer 1

From a Luther website:

Luther arrived in Worms as part of a triumphal procession. The emperor and church officials expected him to recant his theses while at the Diet.

Luther's books were placed on a table. He was then asked if they were his works and whether he wanted to recant any of the information. Luther requested time to think over his reply and the next day he answered with the well-known speach:

"Unless I am convicted by scripture and plain reason - I do not accept the authority of the popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other - my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and I will not recant anything for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. God help me. Amen." It is legend that Luther said the words "Here I stand. I cannot do otherwise. God help me, Amen!" These words were probably only added to make the story more interesting; to make it a 'press sensation'.

If you want to go with the legendary words, "Here I Stand" would make a nice sign. If not, then "I will not recant" would be a good choice.

Perhaps Wycliff might have a sign that says

"He speaks to us all".

Referring to the Bible translated so that it could be understood by those who didn't understand Latin.
