The longest journey is the journey inwards. Of him who has chosen his destiny, Who has started upon his quest for the source of his being.Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.-DAG HAMMARSKJOLDWithout discipline, there's no life at all. -KATHARINE HEPBURNWe ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.- MOTHER TERESAYou must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind. -GANDHIAll good things are wild, and free.Any fool can make a rule, and every fool will mind it. -HENRY DAVID THOREAU You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' -ELEANOR ROOSEVELTThe most important thing is to actually think about what you do. To become aware and actually think about the effect of what you do on the environment and on society. That's key, and that underlies everything else.†JANE GOODALL“Go to the people at the top—that is my advice to anyone who wants to change the system, any system. Don’t moan and groan with like-minded souls. Don’t write letters or place a few phone calls and then sit back and wait. Leave safety behind. Put your body on the line. Stand before the people you fear and speak your mind—even if your voice shakes. When you least expect it, someone may actually listen to what you have to say. Well-aimed slingshots can topple giants.†- MAGGIE KAHN"The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us,is itself a marvelous victory." HOWARD ZINN."So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was."
