History doesn't proceed in incremental little notches.

Nature has an incredible capacity for regeneration and growth, but we can't experience it if we stay fearful and focused on lack.

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.

We got hooked on grain-fed meat just as we got hooked on gas guzzling automobiles. Big cars made sense only when oil was cheap; grain-fed meat makes sense only because the true costs of producing it are not counted.

I had the realization that hunger is not caused by scarcity of food, it is caused by the production system and an absence of democracy throughout the world.

Individuality doesn't just mean individualism-standing alone. It means developing one's unique gifts, and being able to share them for the enjoyment of oneself and others.

Democracy is not what we have. It is what we do.
