I believe that hope for the future depends on each of us taking nonviolence into our hearts and minds and developing new and imaginative structures which are nonviolent and life-giving for all.

Everyday there are people in our world that do absolutely amazing things. People of all ages are very capable of doing tremendous, courageous things in spite of their fear.

We reject the way the world is at the moment and we don't accept nuclear weapons

People have the right to come and choose their own political solutions.

I believe passionately in the power of people.

We can rejoice and celebrate today because we are living in a miraculous time. Everything is changing and everything is possible.

Those of us who believe in human rights and the truth - particularly the journalists and the media - should stand in defense of Julian Assange and Bradley Manning. We owe them a lot for telling us the truth of what is happening in our world, and that is why I would continue to support them.
