Transcript of How to Make a Difference
Mahatma Gandhi
“It's the action, not the fruit
of the action, that's
important”
“You have to do the right thing. It may not
be in your power, may not be in your time,
that there'll be any fruit.
But that doesn't mean you stop doing the
right thing. You may never know what
results come from your action.
But if you do nothing, there will be no
result.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The purpose of life is not
to be happy”
“It is to be useful, to be honorable, to
be compassionate, to have it make
some difference that you have lived
and lived well.”
Robert F. Kennedy
“… each of us can work to
change a small portion of
events ”
“Few will have the greatness to bend history
itself, but each of us can work to change a
small portion of events. It is from numberless

history is shaped.

those ripples build a current which can sweep
down the mightiest walls of oppression and
resistance.”
Martin Luther King Jr.
“No work is insignificant.”
“All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and

painstaking excellence.”
Robert F. Kennedy
“The purpose of life is
to contribute in some
way to making things
better.”
Ray Davis
“Status quos are made to
be broken.”
Lady Gaga
“I don't want to make
money; I want to make
a difference”
Mitt Romney
“I went to Massachusetts to
make a difference”
“I didn't go there to begin a political career
running time and time again.
I made a difference.
I put in place the things I wanted to do.”
Michael Dell
• “There's always an opportunity to
make a difference”
“It's through curiosity and looking at
opportunities in new ways that we've always
mapped our path at Dell.
There's always an opportunity to make a
difference.”
Michael J. Fox
I mean, I enjoy my work as an actor. But
to make a difference in people's lives
through advocacy and through
supporting research - that's the kind of
privilege that few people will get, and it's
certainly bigger than being on TV every
Thursday for half an hour.
“… but to make a difference in
people’s lives…”
