I think that we need to begin talking about what does it mean to create these safe spaces in our communities, to begin welcoming one another into our homes and into our communities when they're returning home from prison, people who are on the streets.

They know that – behind the icy mask people wear – there is a heart of fire. That is why the warriors risk more than others.

Without love, live has no meaning.

People can work from anywhere.

The Afghansti have caused a great many people a great deal of grief and have themselves suffered - for a lie, let us not forget - the same ways we in the United States have caused much suffering in Southeast Asia, and have also suffered much in return, also for a lie.
