In Elie Weisel’s Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech on december 10, 1986, he left a message for people to try to understand for themselves. This message was “One person...of integrity can make a difference, a difference between life and death. As long as one rebel, is in prison, our freedom will not be true. As long as one child is hungry, our lives will be filled with anguish and shame” One person can rapidly change the course of an event. This is related to how the grandfather paradox is created. “...One rebel, is in prison, our freedom will not be true.” That excerpt from a quote says that one person controls the freedom of many even if those people have different views. If one person does not control the key to a pivotal event.
