Veritatem cognoscere ruat cælum et pereat mundus

I believe that a revolution can begin from this one strand of straw. Seen at a

glance, this rice straw may appear light and insignificant. Hardly anyone would

believe that it could start a revolution. Nevertheless, I have come to realize the weight

and power of this straw. For me, this revolution is very real.
