“My own take on it is that government will never adequately represent every person in the country. It can't. It's not possible. It's a multicultural, multifaceted society in which we live. The country, I think, thrives because it's willing to embrace many ideas at the same time, but once a decision is made you will be unpopular with many people. The business of our political leaders is to go ahead and make a decision and let the chips fall where they may. That's a very hard thing to do.” PeopleThinkingMayPersonsMadeIdeasCountryHardGovernmentPoliticalFallMy OwnDecisionLeaderWillingEmbraceThings To DoThriveChipsHard ThingsPolitical LeadersMulticultural Author:Kelsey Grammer
“I must have justice, or I will destroy myself. And not justice in some remote and infinite time and space, but here on Earth...I want to see with my own eyes the lamb lie down with the lion and the victim rise up and embrace his murderer. I want to be there when everyone suddenly understands what it has all been about. All the religions of the world are built on this longing, and I am a believer.” WorldWantEyeEarthLyingJusticeMy OwnSpaceBuiltInfiniteVictimEmbraceLongingBelieverLionsMurdererTime And SpaceLambsInfinite Time Author:Fyodor Dostoevsky
“My own take on the word "transgender" is that it's an umbrella term for anyone who breaks any rules, laws, guidelines or protocol of gender. So, to really be an ally, it's important that you recognize and embrace your own transgender nature. Really, I haven't met a single person who doesn't break some rule of gender. In other words, we will assimilate you. Resistance is futile.” PersonsImportantLawTermMy OwnBreakHavensMetsEmbraceGenderResistanceAlliesTransgenderUmbrellaSingle PersonGuidelinesProtocol Author:Kate Bornstein
