It’s remarkable how widespread the desire to change the world is. If you ask, you might find that someone else is changing what you already thought was fixed. (See: Congress) We all have a different idea of what fixing the world is; those ideas are often directly opposed to one another.
I heard that the moral fabric of society was breaking down, and was concerned, only to find out they were talking about me!
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself. — Leo Tolstoy
