Reply:	[quote=Ziff]Over the past few weeks two major heroes of mine passed on. The first was Jane Jacobs a sociologist who greatly criticized politicians of all stripes and argued that the people ought to get what people ought to get. She looked at cities in a human light. When she moved to Toronto she fought for my now-home-city until her very last days. All said she was a great asset and an inspiration. Another one is the economist/Harvard Prof./lots of other important, important other things JK Galbraith. He was a man that understood how the world worked and saw it not through a cipher of greed as far too many people do, rather he saw it through a skeptical lens that encouraged compassion. I suppose the reason I like him so much is just one quote that is a very strong inspiration and should be taken to heart by all young people who seem to be fighting the losing battle of justice. "There are times in politics when you must be on the right side and lose.".[/quote]
