"When it is all too much; when the news is so bad meditation itself feels useless, and a single life feels too small a stone to offer on the altar of Peace, find a Human Sunrise. Find those people who are committed to changing our scary reality. Human sunrises are happening all over the earth, at every moment. People gathering, people working to change the intolerable, people coming in their robes and sandals or in their rags and bare feet, and they are singing, or not, and they are chanting, or not. But they are working to bring peace, light, compassion, to the infinitely frightening downhill slide of Human life."

And yet, in our particular society, it is the narrowed and narrowing view of life that often wins."
"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it."
"This is a wonderful planet, and it is being completely destroyed by people who have too much money and power and no empathy."
