unreasonable

Nicholas Kristof is a top-tier hero of mine. He is a writer but equally an activist, and "one ounce of action beats a ton of words." His book with wife Sheryl WuDunn called Half the Sky is one of the bravest books I have ever read.

I bow deeply to Nick and Sheryl.

And have to lift this quote from George Bernard Shaw:

Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. Unreasonable people attempt to adapt the world to themselves. All progress, therefore, depends on unreasonable people.

Amen.
