Hakim

The wise. The learned.

Those who profess to favour freedom and yet depricate agitation are people who want crops without ploughing the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning, they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters ... Power concedes nothing without a demand, it never has and it never will.
Frederick Douglass 

When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion.

Ethiopian proverb 

A question of politics

Let us teach both ourselves and others that politics does not have to be the art of the possible...but that it also can be the art of the impossible, that is, the art of making both ourselves and the world better.

Vaclav Havel, President of Czechoslovakia,1990
