It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age ofwisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, itwas the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was theseason of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter ofdespair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, wewere all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the otherway - in short, the period was so far like the present period, thatsome of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, forgood or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
Dalia Yedidia
What it all comes down to is that we are the sum of our efforts to change who we are. Identity is no museum piece sitting stock-still in a display case, but rather the endlessly astonishing synthesis of the contradictions of everyday life-Galeano

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak-because some day you will have been all of these…” George Washington Carver
Sha-Hanna LewisAs we continuously learn, the human race must realize that diversity is the art of thinking independently together; therefore creating a revolution of thinking--as we progress as a more unified society we must grasp this concept to collaborate--and see each others' causes and missions as assets to one another--exhibiting honor and integrity along the way. Thanks Public Allies for your efforts at supporting this...
Congratulations Public Allies Chicago Class of 2009!!
