This quote from Gandhi
relates to how change does not happen overnight because change needs to start
with an individual and spread to others. It also is talking about how each
person needs to decide to put forth effort to help change a collective group.
It mainly focuses on the group values of common purpose and consciousness of
self, as people need to be aware of what change they want to occur - that person as an individual needs to be
focused on this common person and how he or she acts to create that change.
I chose this quote by Albert Einstein because we have been
talking about how different members and perspectives of a group can be
beneficial if those talents are recognized. If we always identify one specific
person as the "leader" or the person with "talent", then we
are neglecting everyone else's abilities that can contribute to the entire
community. We also are allowing others to feel disconnected from the community
because they do not fulfill a specific role in the group - they believe that
they are not as inspiring as the "leader", when in reality, their
contributions are just as important for the success of the group.
