Every aspect of our lives is, in a sense, a vote for the kind of world we want to live in.

A life-long mission has been to counter the notion that political engagement is the spinach we must eat in order to have the dessert of freedom.

Our food system takes abundant grain,which people can't afford,and shrinks it into meat,which better-off people will pay for.

Hope is a stance, not an assessment.

If we cannot know what's possible, then we are free to do that which is pulling our hearts and that which is life serving.

There are surprising turning points; there is the straw that breaks the camel's back, and you never know if your action could be the straw.

History doesn't proceed in incremental little notches.
