Each time a man or woman stands up for an ideal or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, they send forth a tiny ripple of hope; and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those tiny ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. -- John F. Kennedy, South Africa 1966
