Geography is the subject which holds the key to our future

I know that we shall meet problems along the way, but I'd far rather see for myself what's going on in the world outside, than rely on newspapers, television, politicians and religious leaders to tell me what I should be thinking.

'Nice' means nothing. Is it someone who doesn't swear and shout? I swear and shout. 'Nice' sounds ineffectual.

I'm aware that, if you feel down, it can be strangely unrelated to circumstances around you. That's just the way life is.

You don't ask people about the immigration policies of the U.K. or their country's agricultural policy. Instead, you talk to them about the meal they're eating or their family, and from that you get the sense of another human being, someone we can all relate to.

Contrary to what the politicians and religious leaders would like us to believe, the world won't be made safer by creating barriers between people.

I can be me, and people seem quite happy with that.
