American society is very like a fish society… . Among certain species of fish, the only thing which determines order of dominance is length of time in the fishbowl.

No society that feeds its children on tales of successful violence can expect them not to believe that violence in the end is rewarded.
Never depend upon institutions or government to solve any problem. All social movements are founded by, guided by, motivated and seen through by the passion of individuals.” - Margaret Mead
