Extraordinary Minute- 10/30
By: Robert White Wednesday October 30, 2013
"Some believe there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills -- against misery, against ignorance, or injustice and violence. Yet many of the world's great movements, of thought and action, have flowed from the work of a single man.
A young monk began the Protestant reformation, a young general extended an empire from Macedonia to the borders of the earth, and a young woman reclaimed the territory of France. It was a young Italian explorer who discovered the new World, and 32 year old Thomas Jefferson who proclaimed that all men are created equal.
Give me a place to stand,' said Archimedes, 'and I will move the world.' These men moved the world, and so can we all."
Robert F. Kennedy
Yes!
And to quote Forrest Gump because (1) I have a one-minute read commitment; and (2) how could I improve on Robert Kennedy's words? ….
“that’s all I have to say about that.”
I'd love to hear what you have to say about that by reading your comments!
With love and respect,
P. S. If you are in Colorado this week please consider joining me for the John Denver Tribute with the amazing John Adams Band on Friday night, November 1st in Palmer Lake near Monument. Great music! Details and tickets by clicking here!
