"Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leadersâ€¦and millions have been killed because of this obedienceâ€¦Our problem is that people are obedient allover the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thievesâ€¦ (and) the grand thieves are running the country. Thatâ€™s our problem."

-- Howard Zinn
