"I have tried to explain to everyone that this is, above all, a message we want to send out, with passion and commitment, to make it clear to those in charge that it really is time for something to change. I have been chosen by many friends on the web as the face of this ‘smiling uprising’, as I have chosen to call it, but they could have chosen many other faces instead of mine and the protest would have been just as effective, because the face to put forward is, yes, important, but what matters are the faces to be removed."
