Only an iron wall of Jewish force can guarantee the security of the Jewish settlement in the Land of Israel. —FROM ZE’EV JABOTINSKY, “THE IRON WALL” (1923)
“Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”

What great cause would have been fought and won under the banner: ‘I stand for consensus?”
