About This Quote
The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us. The irony is that the world changes for the worse. The people change, but we remain the same. We are still fighting for that which is right, but our enemies are stronger than they were before. We gain victories here and there, but our enemies win more often than not.
