“Many people feel powerless in our society, but if you can put 750 to 800 words together in cohesive and intelligent fashion, you can publish your views in the New York Times and influence millions of people, perhaps change the course of events and history. You only have one vote as a citizen, but with your words you can transform the world around you. It’s a very powerful tool.” Smith, Molly (2005). Live & Learn, VOl 4 # 3.
