"If
our colleges and universities do not breed men who riot, who rebel,
who attack life with all the youthful vision and vigor, then there is
something wrong with our colleges. The more riots that come out of our
college campuses, the better the world for tomorrow." - William Allen White.

"But
even if we act to erase material poverty, there is another greater
task, it is to confront the poverty of satisfaction - purpose and
dignity - that afflicts us all. Too much and for too long, we seemed
to have surrendered personal excellence and community values in the mere accumulation of material things. " - Robert F. Kennedy
