I've seen what happens to courageous people. They get killed, their principles disillusioned and nothing is left for their families thereafter.

Stealthy individuals survive systems designed to dehumanize and to destroy. They leave something behind, besides some noble legacy that doesn't feed or clothe them, for their progeny.

Courage can be found in working within the system instead of seeking to bring it down.

The nail that sticks up WILL BE hammered down. Unless you also hold the hammer.
