Most religions adopt the idea of a “savior” and state that the world will remain filled with evil until this savior comes and fills it with goodness and righteousness.

Maybe our problem on this planet is that people expect someone else to come solve their problems instead of doing it themselves.

The first thing you do is get up off your fuckin' knees. And then, if you're paying attention, The Evil will show you what's next.

“Speak up, speak out,

get in the way.

Get in good trouble,

necessary trouble,

and help redeem the soul of America.”

--John Lewis
