Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today.”

You're not that strong.
I don't belong here!”

Lyrics, Alicia Witt (2009)
Context: My so-called faith went up in flames
Till I believed in all your lies,
For the life of me I don't know why.
They got you wrong,
You're not that strong.
I don't belong here!

“There's no question that largely vegetarian diets are as healthy as you can get. The evidence is so strong and overwhelming and produced over such a long period of time that it's no longer debatable.”

Marion Nestle American academic

Reported in Nutrition Action Healthletter, October 1996 issue; as quoted in J. M. Masson, The Face on Your Plate (New York: Norton & Company, 2009), p. 172

“Let's just get to the political heart of the matter, No matter what you want to call it, beyond border enforcement, a lot of people, particularly on our side, don't want to have a debate about this. Even if you debate it, you're wrong. Even if you're open-minded about compromise, you're wrong. It's a very simple answer to a complex problem. Send them all back. End of discussion, end of debate. Now that to me is not a realistic approach to a real problem.”
