if you want to catch a lot of rain, put out a lot of teacups...
My son, Quinn, sent me this today and I think it is just perfect for 5 for Fairness.
"Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary—the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trim tab.
It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trim tab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you altogether. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go.
So I said, call me Trim Tab."
—Buckminster Fuller
So I say, call 5 for Fairness Trim Tab and we'll help the whole big ship of the world move in a new direction.
