Have you ever attended a meeting, sat through the day's proceedings, listened, more or less to everything that was said? Some good, some poor, some average, some party line and then as the day draws to a close someone stands up and speaks brilliant words. They tell it as it is.
Indeed, it may be that you agree with them. But no, there is more to it than that. You know that they are speaking with conviction and intelligence. Suddenly and sensationally all the mediocrity and party politics is blown away and one is presented with a picture that is so clear and real.
And the bravery of it.
