Interrupt worry, gently and persistently. Interrupt your imagination’s pictures of futures that don’t exist yet and may never. Introduce a memory of beauty, a possibility of laughter, rest, or fellowship.

Responsibility: complicity to truth
The ideals that our country has professed since the ratification of the Constitution have never really been owned up to and met. Any Hispanic, Asian, black, or American Indian will attest to this.
