About This Quote

A culture is made — or destroyed — by its articulate voices. Those who can speak loudest are the ones who make the difference. The power of the spoken word has always been a key to social change. When people speak up, they are only given an opportunity to express their ideas, opinions, viewpoints, and feelings. It is because of their words that people begin to learn how they should think, feel, and act in society.
