A Bishop was approached one morning by a Priest.

"Your Eminence," the Priest said, "there's a young lad here who claims
to be seeing a vision of our Savior in the chapel. What should I do ?"

The Bishop jumped up saying, "Well, I don't know about you, but I'm
gonna look real busy !"
"Let no one be discouraged by the belief that there is nothing one man
or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills --
against misery and ignorance, injustice and violence... Few will have
the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a
small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be
written the history of this generation...

It is from the numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human
history is shaped. Each time a man (or a woman) stands up for an ideal,
or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice,
he (or she) sends a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a
million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a
current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and
resistance."

- Robert Francis Kennedy, speech at Day of Affirmation, University of
Capetown, South Africa
