“Being satisfied to drink the dregs from the cup of human progress will not demonstrate our fitness as a people to exist alongside of others, but when of our own initiative we strike out to build industries, governments, and ultimately empires, then and only then will we as a race prove to our creator and to man in general that we are fit to survive and capable of shaping our own destiny.” PeopleMenHumansGovernmentRaceDestinyProgressIndustryFitDrinkProveCapableCreatorStrikesSatisfiedCupsEmpiresInitiativeHuman ProgressDregs Book:Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey Source: Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey

It was 'contrary to all expectations' that the Earth was found to revolve around the sun, and not the other way round, and that a mould growing in one of Dr. Alexander Fleming's dishes was found to be capable of destroying bacteria.
