• I'm against the theory of the multinational corporations who say if you are
  against hunger you must be for GMO. That's wrong, there is plenty of
  natural, normal good food in the world to nourish the double of humanity.

  except the profit motive and the domination of the multinational
  corporations.

• We all know that men in moderate circumstances can have just as comfortable houses as the richest, just as comfortable clothing, just as good food. They can see just as fine paintings, just as marvelous statues, and they can hear just as good music. They can attend the same theaters and the same operas. They can enjoy the same sunshine, and above all, can love and be loved just as well as kings and millionaires.
