Words of Note

May 25, 2001

We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.

Marian Wright Edelman, American lawyer, author, and civil-rights activist

From 'Families in Peril' (1987).
