It's just a matter of what kind of difference you want to make, during your life on this planet. " – Julia Butterfly Hill "The truth will set you free. But first, it will piss you off." – Gloria Steinem "If a path to the better there be, it begins with a full look at the worst." – Thomas Hardy "We're all right. How are we going to deal with all that complexity?" – Margaret Wheatley "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that." – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. "The function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers." – Ralph Nader "The future will be
