20. Yes: We are all Giants, you said it correctly,
I said it poorly, but I meant the same thing.
Those of us who step out of our being ordinary people, who disregard the dangers this brings, and rise to be our gigantic selves are few, though we all have the seed within us to do so.

The shouting that is necessary to bring about recognition of injustice and affect the righting of wrongs is rarely dared in ways that disregard personal ambition or safety.

Dennis Kucinich is my front runner for having had the courage to step into the realm of Giants - he knows he won't win, and he will not stop bringing attention to all we ought to be putting first when the well-being of the COUNTRY and the PEOPLE are at stake.
And he himself suffers from discrimination, ultimately the knowledge that he is showing all of us up in one way or another. Sorry I digress. I just so hate all the different prejudices.
