Give every man thy ear but few thy voice. – Shakespeare

It is better to die on your feet, than to live on your knees. – Emiliano Zapata

Let us not waste our time in idle discourse! Let us do something, while we have the chance! It is not every day that we are needed. Not indeed that we personally are needed. Others would meet the case equally well, if not better. To all mankind they were addressed, those cries for help still ringing in our ears! But at this place, at this moment in time, all mankind is us, whether we like it or not. Let us make the most of it, before it is too late! Let us represent worthily, for once, the foul brood to which a cruel fate consigned us! What do you say? (pause) It is true that when with folded arms we weigh the pros and cons we are no less a credit to our species. The tiger bounds to the help of his congeners without the least reflection , or else he slinks away into the depths of the thickets. But that is not the question.

After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand & changing a soul. And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning & company doesn’t mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts & presents aren’t promises. And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up & your eyes ahead… & you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans & futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. So you plant your own garden instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, that you really are strong & that you really do have worth… and with every goodbye, you learn… – Unknown
