“You say that you love your children above everything else. And yet you are stealing their future.”
― No One Is Too Small to Make a Difference
― No One Is Too Small to Make a Difference
“The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.”
