"We feel that everything we do is just a drop in the ocean. But if that drop were not there, the oceans would be lacking."
One of many impressive statements by Mother Teresa. It expresses very well that it is important not only to look for solutions in the quasi unattainable, for which one is much too small or can give too little. But that even small steps and small contributions are important and indispensable for the big picture.
