“Sometimes people ask me what I really want.  Do I have a dream?  And I do. I dream that the oppressed people of the world will be able to learn from the available records and new experiences that this type of nonviolent struggle can be used to liberate all oppression and replace military and violent conflicts, so that you won’t have to carry on struggles against terrorism anymore because the people who might have become terrorists have instead chosen to use this kind of struggle to help out the oppressed people.  This can change the local systems throughout the world. My name is Gene Sharp, and that is my dream.”
