“We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.”
— Ursula K. Le Guin

About this quote
It is easy to feel small in a world that feels too big, too structured, and too permanent. We often find ourselves caught in the gears of systems—economic, social, or even personal—that feel as immovable as mountains. We mistake the current state of things for an unchangeable reality, forgetting that every structure we inhabit was once built by human hands and can, therefore, be reshaped by them. True empowerment begins when we reclaim the narrative of our own lives. Whether you are advocating for global justice or simply rewriting the story of your own potential, the spark of change is often found in the quiet, creative act of expression. Through the art of words, we give shape to our truths, challenge the status quo, and find the courage to believe that a different world is possible. Your voice is more than just a sound; it is a tool for transformation.
