- Where, after all, do human rights begin?
In small places, close to home, in the world of the individual person; the neighborhood he lives in; the school or college he attends; the factory, farm, or office where he works....
Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world. (Eleanor Roosevelt, 1958 Speech to the United Nations.)
- Peace in Oneself; Peace in the World. (Thich Nhat Hanh)
