Action from principle - the perception and the performance of right - changes things and relations; it is essentially revolutionary, and does not consist wholly with anything which was. It not only divides states and churches, it divides families; ay, it divides the individual, separating the diabolical in him from the divine.
-Henry David Thoreau, as excerpted from his essay, On The Duty of Civil Disobedience
