70. As an organizer I start from where the world is, as it is, not as I would like it to be.
That we accept the world as it is does not in any sense weaken our desire to change it into what we believe it should be - it is necessary to begin where the world is if we are going to change it to what we think it should be. That means working in the system.
- Saul Alinsky
