Real change never takes place from the top on down. It always takes place from the bottom on up. It takes place when ordinary people, by the millions, are prepared to stand up and fight for justice. That's what the history of the trade-union movement is about. That's what the history of the women's movement is about. That's what the history of the civil-rights movement is about. That's what the history of the gay-rights movement is about. That's what the history of the environmental movement is about. That's what any serious movement for justice is about. (Bernie Sanders)And:
In the final analysis, a democratic government represents the sum total of the courage and the integrity of its individuals. It cannot be better than they are. (Eleanor Roosevelt)
