Плюс, цитата из прекрасного, даром что левого, Эрика Флинта:
The plans and schemes of tyrants are broken by many things. They shatter against cliffs of heroic struggle. They rupture on reefs of open resistance. And they are slowly eroded, by by little bit, on the very beaches where they measure triumph, by countless grains of sand. By the stubborn little decencies of humble little men.

Но, из педантизма, напишу, что это не столько оригинал, сколько песня, послужившая основой для Фрейдкина :)
