“I deeply sympathize with the American people during this tragic time, as the natural disasters and wildfires you're facing are heartbreaking. But have you ever stopped to consider that countless others around the world face similar suffering even worse every day—suffering caused by your government’s actions and decisions? The leaders you've chosen are responsible for the destruction of millions of homes, dropping thousands of bombs from Iraq to Palestine, from Africa to Bosnia. While you endure your own hardship, it’s crucial to recognize the pain inflicted on others by the very power structures you support. The time has come to confront these realities, demand accountability, and acknowledge the global consequences of your nation's choices." As now may you understand the pain how it's feel to see your own house burning”

“What did we really achieve by replacing the orange-haired orangutan with a better alternative, if that better alternative ultimately fails as horribly as his predecessor, when things get really desperate. I may not be a US citizen, but I am a US taxpayer, and when tax dollars from my books on peace and justice are used to aid and fund genocide and war, I find it difficult to maintain respect for such new administration. Citizens of earth could end all wars in a year - boycott all tax-filing unless your governments cease all defense activities for good.”

“وقتی زمان زیادی یک جا می مانی، فراموش می کنی دنیا چقدر وسیع است. هیچ درکی از اندازه ی واقعی نصف النهارها و مدارها پیدا نمی کنی، همان طور که سخت است درکی از وسعت درون هر انسانی داشته باشی. ولی وقتی وسعت را درک کنی، وقتی چیزی گستردگی انسان را به چشمت آشکار کند، امید سر بر می آورد، چه تو بخواهی چه نخواهی، و سرسختانه به تو می چسبد و رهایت نمی کند مثل خزه که صخره را رها نمی کند.”

“He (George Washington) saw those dangers to good government without even exposure to today’s runaway election expenses. For the presidency alone, what is more wasteful than the multimillions of dollars raised and spent for presidential primaries? All evidence is that today, the true best and brightest of our potential national leaders have no appetite for entering into the long, long months of primaries, raising and spending those multimillions, exhausting all that money and themselves, getting their careers dissected and maligned. Then, the “lucky” winner emerging in the fall is usually so smeared by his primary rivals that the other party simply has to raise a few reminders of what a candidate’s own party “friends” had said about him or her. Hell of a system, after more than 230 years of the evolution of our democracy.”
