"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."

This quote came from Martin Luther King Jr. This quote has an impact because it could give someone confidence. It could also mean that your life haven't really started or isn't so important unless you changed the world or did something crucial. This quote has an impact because it is saying that that a person cannot truly live by simply taking into account his/her own worries and concerns. Only when an individual thinks of the values and issues of others and all of society do they appreciate life and therefore "start living" as a good person.

"Be the change you wish to see in the world".
To me, this quote means that if you don't like something in the world that you would like to change, then you should. You shouldn't change something that other people say that you should. You should make changes because you want to and make changes and things that you are mostly concerned with. Also, this quote could mean that if you want change in the world or something particular in the world, you should take part of it. To change the world, you don't have to do anything big or you don't have to copy off of others because that's what most people are doing to make a difference. To make changes, its what you mostly wants to change and something you are really urging to change. That's what I think this quote means to me.
