“I don't think there's any heroism anymore. The heroism has to be created out of the medium itself. Going back to the idea of television, all the current heros are sports heros because the medium creates the heros. There's nothing essentially heroic about being a good pitcher.”

“Were it not for our momentum
The inertia of our actions
The constant inspiration of our habits
We could not continue
"The will is almost nothing," he said to himself.”

“...hope for a healthier society: - A healthy society is one that provides access to vegetables, fruits and animal protein and rejects the multiple processed foods and desserts that have flooded our markets.
- A healthy society is one that decreases pollutants that contaminate the air we breathe and the water we drink.
- A healthy society should have open spaces for its people to hike, walk, saunter or just sit reading a book or taking time to watch the sun set.
- A healthy society has compassion for its individual members and a reverence to the Earth that harbors them.
To do that each of us has to take responsibility for our own health. Succumbing to the plethora of unhealthy foods, drugs, alcohol and tobacco will not make a healthy individual. Poor health habits lead to disease, the taking of multiple medications with side effects and the inability to live life fully. Our consumer industries feed off our unhealthy habits and in concordance, our health care becomes ever more expensive. These choices are up to us.”
