Catchphrases, every one. Stuff you used to hear at rallies, propaganda parties, revolutionarist gatherings, and Christian meetings. Stuff that's nice to hear because its anti-apathy, anti-statusquo, anti-keepingthingsthewaytheyalwayswere.

But also, stuff that forces ruffling of feathers, uncomfortable-ness, possible falling-outs, and most of all, Change.

We hear them over and over again, and every time we hear them, another voice speaks out.

"Really think you'll make a difference?"

"Want to stick out like a sore thumb?"

"Think of yourself for a change"

or simply

"Why bother?"
