I didn't want to hear the usual answers about what's wrong because I believe these are symptoms: global warming, genocide, hunger, poverty, war, environmental crisis. If we can identify the root cause, we can change our ways.

I was raised Catholic and didn't like the dogma and exclusivity of that teaching but I was moved by the moral teachings and by the power of the Jesus fellow.

I hope people start to look at their lives as the most powerful, creative act they will ever offer this world.

I don't have any interest in changing a system, because the system will simply get bucked back by people who haven't changed.

I think true success is intrinsic... It's love. It's kindness. It's community.

I was always kind of finding humor to be an access point to the conversation, to a pain relief, if you will. My mother was in a wheelchair since I was very young, so she was in pain and we used humor.

I think laughter is a sacred act.
