Change Quote by Danial Shamsi
““By the time any of us reach any place significant enough to bring change, it is already too late to act upon our vision & ideologies, because the world, collectively has moved on & other people have their own vision. These two forces collide & shape the world of today & prolongs the world of tomorrow.””
