    If that person is passionate and determined about that issue then why not? This may sound hypocritical but here's how Iqbal puts it in one of his Persian couplets:

    Someone (a divine voice) asked me, are you happy with the way this world is

    I said no

    The answer came: then go smash it up and make it the way you wish (it to be)
    And my all time favorite from Iqbal:

    Khudi ko har buland itna kay har Takdeer se pehle
    Khuda bande se khud poche bata teri raza kiya hai.

    "Raise thyself to such heights,
    That God Himself may Ask-
    What do you wish me to write your fate ?"
    Dream, I do.

    Well said Endurer.

    I have not come across many such persons,but i know a few who have written their own fates and are sitting on the most deserving place.

    Yes a person can make a difference , there are many fine examples of this and i believe that to see the change in the society we must first bring those changes in us.

    Endurer thats a brilliant reply and i agree with many of ur points..and would have also quoted that fine saying of uncle Iqbal :

    Khudi ko har buland itna kay har Takdeer se pehle
    Khuda bande se khud poche bata teri raza kiya hai.


    "Raise thyself to such heights,
    That God Himself may Ask-
    What do you wish me to write your fate ?"

    Kandukuri Veeresa Lingam (1848-1919) fought for education for women, and remarriage of widows. In Hindu society, remarriage of widows started after
    his movement in Andhra Pradesh and was gradually accepted all over India.

    The BRAHMA SAMAJ founded by RAJA RAM MOHAN ROY fought against SATI, the inhuman practice of burning the wife in the funeral pyre of her husband.

    The freedom struggle movement through non-violence by Mahatma Gandhi
    is well known to the world.

    Yes. There are umpteen examples... but the person should demonstrate the vigour, passion, focus and the aims that he/she wishes to achieve to bring in postive change in the society. His/her integrity level should be such that people who follow him/her are prepared to die on his/her words.
