My gut sense is there's something necessary going on and if I'm too fearful or angry, I feel like I'm feeding it.

What may be on the surface looks like one thing but it's often a much larger problem.

Well, when people ask where I'm from, I usually say the Midwest, because that covers both homes, in a way. Obviously I was born in Omaha, but when people say, "Where do you come from," we'll say Milwaukee. I mean Jennifer was certainly born in Milwaukee, and that's where I spent a big chunk of my adult life, so we usually say we came here from Milwaukee. That's usually how it's referenced is we're from Milwaukee, yeah.

The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.

Thinking that everything must be bigger to matter is a problem. Small power emanates and disseminates in a very different way.

It's no surprise that if you look at the development of the economy, of consumerism, of all these things that have gotten out of hand over the last hundred years, it happened when men were purposeless, when they didn't actually have a legitimate reason to be moving the species forward because the machines were doing all the hard work.

Whatever shift is necessary is dependent on the scale on which it can be implemented, which is to say in your local community and family.
