-- 
"Few men are willing to brave the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues,
the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great
intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality of those who seek to change a world which
yields most painfully to change."
          - Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961), A Farewell to Arms, 1929
