The model of ownership in a society organized round mass consumption is addiction.

But hey when you live in Watts you need a little smack to get by you know what I mean? You need something soft and comfortable in your life 'cause you're not going to get it from what's around you. And society isn't going to give it to you.

The key to organizing an alternative society is to organize people around what they can do and more importantly what they want to do.

I've covered a lot of ground geographically and emotionally and for years I lost my connection with my family. But the best comfort you can have whether you are on the phone or sitting there in the living room with them is with your parents and to me family has always meant protection. When you smile you get a smile back unconditionally.

My big running discovery was around Stanley Park in Vancouver. Miss it. That's a six-mile loop. Now I smile when I get four miles done. Age is a beast.

The essence of life is the smile of round female bottoms under the shadow of cosmic boredom.

I'd much rather have sat there and just been a fly on the wall instead of having to smile at people. I'd rather have been a waitress. Just gone round and stared at people.

I try to greet my friends with a drink in my hand a warm smile on my face and great music in the background because that's what gets a dinner party off to a fun start.

I never smile when I have a bat in my hands. That's when you've got to be serious. When I get out on the field nothing's a joke to me. I don't feel like I should walk around with a smile on my face.

I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can't believe I spent so many years blurry but I think that coincides with how I was feeling. Now I notice if people are watching me but I also smile right back if someone waves which helps.

If you smile when no one else is around you really mean it.

I love having my hands in the dirt. It is never a science and always an art. There are no rules. And if it comes down to me versus that weed I'm trying to pull out of the ground that doesn't want to come out? I know I'll win.

Sound science must be a basis to governing our trade relations around the globe.

Carl took on the military-industrial complex. He campaigned around the world for an end to the production of weapons of mass destruction. To him it was a perversion of science.

I grew up a Red Sox fan. I grew up going to Fenway Park and the Museum of Fine Arts and the Science Museum and Symphony Hall and going to the Common walking around. My whole family at different times lived and worked in Boston.

Weapons of mass destruction aren't pulled out of a black hat like a white rabbit at a magic show. They're produced in factories. There's science and technology involved. They're not produced in a hole in the ground or in a basement.

Some ideas you have to chew on then roll them around a lot play with them before you can turn them into funky science fiction.
