Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leaders and millions have been killed because of this obedience. Our problem is that people are obedient allover the world in the face of poverty, starvation, stupidity, war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves and the grand thieves are running the country." Howard Zinn Disobey the always obeyed. Disobey the normal. Disobey the lines that circle us. Disobey for your children, family, and friends. Disobey to open up the true freedom of thinking and living. Obey no other. Obey yourself. Obey your needs. Your wants will obey you.
