RANDOM QUOTE
“To be hopeful in bad times
is not just foolishly romantic. It
is based on the fact that
human history is a history not
only of cruelty, but also of
compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. What we
choose to emphasize in this complex
history will determine our lives. If
we see only the worst, it
destroys our capacity to do something.
If we remember those times and
places — and there are so
many — where people have behaved
magnificently, this gives us the energy
to act, and at least the
possibility of sending this spinning top
of a world in a different
direction. And if we do act,
in however small a way, we
don’t have to wait for some
grand utopian future. 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
