“I've been to Africa many times in the past 20 years, but I can't believe this is the first time since the very first Red Nose Day, that I've been back to Ethiopia. The last time I was here was just after the famine and it was crazy, there were people all over the place, kids without families, aid workers, camera crews.” PeopleYearsFirstsBelieveI CanKidsLastsPastCrazyFirst TimeRedCamerasWorkersAidsNosesLast TimeCrewFamineEthiopia Author:Lenny Henry
“Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid. In the past, whenever I had fallen short in almost any undertaking, it was seldom because I had tried and failed.

“The fear of AIDS imposes on an act whose ideal is an experience of pure presentness (and a creation of the future) a relation to the past to be ignored at one's peril. Sex no longer withdraws its partners, if only for a moment, from the social. It cannot be considered just a coupling; it is a chain, a chain of transmission, from the past.” IfsMomentsPastSocialSexCreationPureIdealsRelationAidsPartnersChainsIgnoredPerilTransmissionCoupling Author:Susan Sontag
“The AIDS disease is caused by a virus, but the AIDS epidemic is not. The AIDS epidemic is fueled by stigma, by hate, by misinformation, by ignorance, by indifference. Science has accomplished miracles over the past 20 years, and science can now end this disease - but it cannot end the epidemic. We need more than medicine. We can do something about these things. We need to speak out about the changes we need to make in our society.” NeedsYearsEndsPastHateSpeakCan DoIgnoranceDiseaseMiracleMedicineAidsIndifferenceAccomplishedOur SocietyVirusesOver The PastStigmaEpidemicsSpeaks OutCan Do SomethingMisinformationAids Epidemic Author:Elton John
