Quote to Ponder

 

 

"Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience.
Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates
of leaders…and millions have been killed because of this obedience…
Our problem is that people are obedient allover the world in the face
of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty.
Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full
of petty thieves… (and) the grand thieves are running the country.
That’s our problem."

— Howard Zinn
