Half the Sky


 halftheskymovement:

“It is a moral failure that 200 million girls in the developing world woke up this morning and didn’t go to school.  By the time that I die, I would like us to start every sentence with the words like, ‘every girl goes to school’, ‘every child is literate’, ‘every child has access to reading materials.’ And no child should ever be told you were born in the wrong place at the wrong time and you didn’t get educated. That — that whole idea just belongs in the dustbin of history.” –John Wood (Room to Read)

“It’s easy to see the pain here, but what’s beautiful to me is the love here, and the health here, and the idea that community, even if it’s a community of pain at first, is so healing. And that’s very simple, powerful idea, and it’s in action here.” -Meg Ryan
