wise words from a great man
"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion.We will be remembered in spite of ourselves. We shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last, best hope of Earth"
Words from one of the greatest and most noble men to have ever lived.And some of the most moving words to have ever been spoken,and never more true than today one hundred and forty one years later.

But if as you say the truth is fluid that the truth is subjective then maybe you can fight the system. As long as just one person refuses to be broken refuses to bow down” “But can you win?” “Every time I say NO”
