That Portion Which Is Yours

"How can you sit so comfortably with the indifference that you're evidencing with this tragedy (famine in Africa), when you could, in fact, take some part of that tragedy and fix it and make a difference?  Not all of it.  Don't sit there and be overwhelmed by the enormity of the problem.  Just pick out that portion which is yours, and kick butt.  Go out there and make a difference.  Change it.  Change it.  CHANGE IT."  ~Harry Belefonte to Ken Kragen, 20 Dec 1984, as quoted in Stand and Deliver by David Crosby, ©1999
