Can One Person Change the World?

I posed the question: “Can one person change the world?”

The answer was: “For evil, yes it’s easier; for good, no it’s hard.”

The rationale was: “If you throw a pebble into water, ten thousand others throw it with you; if you pick up a pebble, you have to pick up ten thousand others yourself.”

Yes, I tend to agree. I’m not pessimistic anymore. I’m a realist. I try to be optimistic.

I certainly hope this is not the case.
