The Boy & the Starfish
As the man approached even closer, he was able to see that the boy was picking up starfish that had been washed up on the beach. and, one at a time, he was throwing them back into the water.
The man asked the boy what he was doing; the boy replied,"I am throwing these washed up starfish back into the ocean, or else they will die through lack of oxygen. "But", said the man, "You can't possibly save them all; there are thousands on this beach, and this must be happening on hundreds of beaches along the coast. You can't possibly make a difference."
The boy smiled, bent down and picked up another starfish, and as he threw it back into the sea, he replied, "I made a huge difference to that one!"

When intellectuals fight...
George Bernard Shaw (to Winston Churchill):
I'm reserving two tickets for you for my premiere. Come and bring a friend - if you have one.
Churchill:
Impossible to be present for the first performance. Will attend second - if there is one.
