I need to read at least one major book every week. And I need to remember that my seventy years are going to go by too quickly. Diana Nyad

That role for government is breaking up the monopolies, insisting on public disclosure, insisting on public audits, insisting on restitution whenever someone has been cheated. Dennis Kucinich

Support Medicare for all. Dennis Kucinich
