| Social ResponsibilityEven when we know what is right, too often we fail to act. More often
we grab greedily for the day, letting tomorrow bring what it will,
putting off the unpleasant and unpopular. ~Bernard M. Baruch
"I must do something" always solves more problems than "Something must be done." ~Author Unknown

| TrialsThe pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a
few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and
progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its
setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned.
Dag Hammarskjold
As for courage and will - we cannot measure how much
of each lies within us, we can only trust there will be sufficient to
carry through trials which may lie ahead.
Andre Norton

| PeacePeace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and
all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it
is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they
have and all that they are.
The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes
within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their
oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize
that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that
this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.

| Martin Luther King, Jr.Though this is not a quote from Martin Luther King, Jr, I feel like it is relevant to his life's work.
It is from the numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers or energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.
-Robert Francis Kennedy, South Africa 1966
