I've been planning this project since Mayor Daley dropped out of the running for Mayor. More on this topic in a later entry.
Here are a few quotations that inspire my commitment to civic engagement.
“…It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds…” Samuel Adams, patriot and brewer
'...So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was..." Molly Ivins, writer and Texan
“Never, never, never, never give up.” Winston Churchill, Prime Minister and painter
