There are things you can't back down on, things you gotta take a stand on. But it's up to you to decide what them things are.
~ Mildred D. Taylor in ROLL OF THUNDER, HEAR MY CRY
Suddenly I heard the sound; it was
the sacred whispers. The whispers
come to me from the land, the
sky and the sea, and often they
urge me to be still. Above all,
the whispers signal change.
