“Sexual integrity means honestly recognizing our own impulses and desires and honoring them, whether or not we choose to act on them. If we value integrity, we must also value diversity in sexual expression and orientation, recognizing that there is no one truth, or one way, that fits everyone.Sexuality is sacred because through it we make a connection with another self - but it is misused and perverted when it becomes an arena of power-over, a means of treating another - or oneself - as an object.” IfsWayMeanSelfDesireValuesObjectsExpressionFitIntegrityDiversityConnectionsSacredOneselfSexualityHonestlyOne WayImpulseRecognizingArenaOrientationMisused Book:Dreaming the Dark Source: Dreaming the Dark
“the overwhelming majority of people who are engaged in the processes of thought and expression are Democrats because the essence of thought is exploration and diversity and change. It's impossible to have vision in art or government without risk, or the boldness and courage which produce risk. And this - in spite of what they call modern Republicanism - is the antithesis of true Republican thinking.” PeopleThinkingArtGovernmentPoliticalProcessPartyVisionImpossibleRiskModernProduceExpressionRepublicanDiversityEssenceMajorityDemocratEngagedSpiteExplorationOverwhelmingPolitical PartiesBoldnessAntithesisRepublicanismBoldness And Courage Author:Marya Mannes
“Logic, like language, is partly a free construction and partly a means of symbolizing and harnessing in expression the existing diversities of things; and whilst some languages, given a man's constitution and habits, may seem more beautiful and convenient to him than others, it is a foolish heat in a patriot to insist that only his native language is intelligible or right.” MenMayMeanSeemsBeautifulLanguageGivenExpressionHabitDiversityLogicConstitutionFoolishHeatNativeConstructionPatriotConvenientNative Language Author:George Santayana

“You go to a lot of small communities in rural Alberta and you'll find a degree of diversity that probably hasn't existed in terms of immigration for a century - you'll find the Filipino grocery store, and the African Pentecostal church and maybe a mosque. Albertans are pro-immigration; they're also pro-integration. In my years in this province I cannot recall more than a handful of expressions of xenophobia or nativism that I've encountered. It's the land of new beginnings and fresh starts - it is rare Albertans who trace their roots here back more than a generation or two.” YearsTwoTermCommunityChurchGenerationsLandCenturyExpressionDegreesDiversityRootsStoresImmigrationRecallsIntegrationNew BeginningsHandfulGroceriesProvincesXenophobiaFresh StartGrocery StoresMosquesFilipinoSmall CommunitiesAlbertaPentecostal Author:Jason Kenney
