“I wished Americans were more like Canadians — until you elected Stephen Harper.”
“Kennedy pulled no punches in a sobering 15 minutes of remarks on the state of environmental protection and democracy – both in Canada and in his own country. ‘Canada has always been the moral paradigm of nations. It was famous for its humanity, for its commitment to future generations…and, really, for its strong sense of community amongst Canadians and the rest of the world…. It’s not good to let oilmen run your country ’”—Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

QUOTES
"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
- George Orwell

"The civilized have created the wretched, quite coldly and deliberately, and do not intend to change the status quo; are responsible for their slaughter and enslavement; rain down bombs on defenseless children whenever and wherever they decide that their "vital interests" are menaced, and think nothing of torturing a man to death: these people are not to be taken seriously when they speak of the 'sanctity' of human life, or the 'conscience' of the civilized world." - James Baldwin, Source: page 489 of COLLECTED ESSAYS (1998), from chapter one of "The Devil Finds Work" (orig. pub. 1976)
"Since world war two we've managed to create history's
first truly global empire. This has been done by the corporatocracy, which are
a few men and women who run our major corporations and in doing so also run the
U.S. government and many other governments around the world." - John
Perkins, 2005, author of the book titled 'Confessions of and Economic Hit Man'
In the struggle of Good against Evil, it's always the people who get killed. - Eduardo Galeano
"It's not enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something. May I suggest that it be creating joy for others, sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely." - Leo Buscaglia, author and university professor (1924-1998)
