all the fountains of joy in the world.

doesn't make any difference whatsoever.
The probability of an election swinging
by a single vote is infinitesimal.

your intention for the future of the world matters.
That's so important, it's worth saying again.
At Least As Much As Your Vote Matters,
Your Intention For The Future Of The Entire World Matters.

Truth always rests with the minority,
and the minority is always stronger than the majority,

while the strength of a majority is illusory,
formed by the gangs who have no opinion -
and who, therefore, in the next instant
(when it is evident that the minority is the stronger)
assume its opinion... while truth again reverts to a new minority.
- Soren Kierkegaard

Instead of comparing our lot with that
of those who are more fortunate than we are,
we should compare it with the lot
of the great majority of our fellow men.
It then appears that we are among the privileged.
- Helen Keller

We may consider each generation as a distinct nation,
with a right, by the will of its majority,
to bind themselves, but none to
bind the succeeding generation,
more than the inhabitants of another country.

All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle,

that will to be rightful must be reasonable;

which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression.
- Thomas Jefferson
