Zinn: Civil Obedience

"Our problem is not civil disobedience; our problem is civil obedience. Our
problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the
leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty." ~Howard Zinn, Historian
