"What we do is very little, but it is like the little boy with a few loaves of fishes. Christ took that little and increased it. He will do the rest. What we do is so little we may seem to be constantly failing. But so did He fail. He met with apparent failure on the cross. But unless the seed fall into the earth and die, there is no harvest. And why must we see results? our work is to sow. Another generation is to reap the harvest."
— Dorothy Day, American social activist, born 1897
