This comes from Srila Prabhupada, not Lord Caitanya as far as I can

say. Quotes:

 

Similarly, we do not expect that the whole population of the human

society will be taking to this brahminical culture; but even one

percent of the whole population accepts this brahminical culture,

KŠa consciousness, then the whole world will be peaceful. Not even

one percent, less than one percent. It is so nice. ...

So it is not expected, however, that cent percent population of the

world will be such free from all contamination. But even a certain

percentage only, even most insignificant, one percent or less than

that, millions in one, then the face of the world will change.

(Lecture - Los Angeles, December 4, 1968)

 

Of course, we do not expect that everyone will accept this philosophy,

but even one percent population of the whole world accepts this...

(Engagement lecture - Buffalo, April 23, 1969)

 

And at least if one percent of the whole population becomes KŠa

conscious, the whole world will be a different world.

(SB lecture 5.5.2 - Boston, April 28, 1969)

 

So try to preach this cult. But not that everyone will accept, but

even a few percent, one percent of the whole population accept.

(SB lecture 1.15.1 - New York, November 29, 1973)

 

Not cent percent, but even one percent man becomes ideal, the

ninety-nine percent will see and follow.

(Room Conversation - May 21, 1975 Melbourne)

 

®r…la Prabhup€da: Yes, but example is better than precept. If even one

percent of the population is trained as ideal men, the other

ninety-nine percent will see and follow.

(BTG - Srila Prabhupada Speaks Out)

 

"If one percent of the readers become devotees," he wrote, "that will

change the world." Whereas mail-order advertisers were satisfied with

a five-percent response, ®r…la Prabhup€da spoke of an even smaller

percentage-one percent-whom he thought could become pure devotees in

response to receiving a book.

(SP Lilamrta Vol. 6, 45)

 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Your servant, bh. Jan
