"The founders of this nation declared their independence to
create a more perfect nation, not a perfect nation. They knew it would always
be a work in progress, depending on each following generation to continue the
work. And as they were right in so many things, they were right in that. There
is work to be done. And it doesn't have to be sweeping change that you
accomplish. What are we, most of us who are active? We're the little rudders
that, eventually get the big ship to turn. It doesn't take a lot to make a
difference."
-Thomas C. Wales
