"Civilization survives because from time to time some of the strong step
forward and say 'enough.'  Those who care cannot correct all of the wrongs
nor do they owe an apology for those wrongs they cannot impact.  However,
in my view, they must step forward when the question of appropriate action
is presented.  In such moments, inaction or indifference - not failure -
is the deadly sin."
Circuit Judge Jerome Farris,    9th. Circuit Court of Appeals
