“You can't make people change, but the organizers of WorldFest hope that people consider being vegetarian for both moral and health reasons.”

“There is an attitude that we should be able to have everything. No, you shouldn't be able to have anything. I'd like a helicopter, but I can't afford a helicopter, so I don't buy one. People are buying stuff they can't afford on credit. I bought my Ford hybrid with cash.”
