“Feelings are much stronger than thoughts. We are all led by instinct, and our intellect catches up later”
“We thought that we had the answers, it was the questions we had wrong.”
“The past is not a place I like to visit. This project is forcing me to go there, to tidy up my thoughts. I'm not normally a navel-gazer. I've always thought you find yourself in other people. I'm visiting here. I don't want to set up house.”
“I am a Christian - but sometimes I feel very removed from Christianity. The Jesus Christ that I believe in was the man who turned over the tables in the temple and threw the money-changers out - substitute T.V. evangelists if you like…why in the West, do we spend so much money on extending the arms race instead of wiping out malaria, which could be eradicated given ten minutes worth of the world's arm budget? To me, we are living in the most un-Christian times. When I see these racketeers, the snake-oil salesmen on these right-winged television stations, asking for not your $20.00, or your $50.00, but your $100.00 in the name of Jesus Christ, I just want to throw up!!”
“I will admit that we are attracted to issues that unify people rather than divide them.”
“We can't fix all problems but we must fix the ones we can”
“Every age has its massive moral blind spots. We might not see them, but our children will.”
