Change Quote by Helen Jane Rose
““As history proves time and time again, and like the fate of the Roman Empire, tyrannical rule is always brought down. Perhaps not as quickly as we would hope, but when people are brought to their knees, becoming slaves to the very system that’s promising their freedom, it’s inevitable for change to occur””
