Words to Ponder

"If we think about it, save for the vagaries of birth, errant biology, class and status, or simply circumstance, we are all but a half step away from the ‘other’ families we describe as in need of service or ‘at risk.’ In the final analysis, it is not ‘us’ and ‘them.’ It is all of us. Together"

Irish economist, T. K. Whittaker (1997)
