The clock is ticking. It's time to stand up. Reject the lesser evil and that propaganda. Reject the lesser evil. Fight for the greater good like our lives depend on it, because they do. We're running out of time. It's time to stand up.

More quotes by Jill Stein
Historically, if you look back at the struggle to end slavery, the struggle to gain womens' right to vote, the labor movement - these were big social transitions in which there was a movement on the ground in which a lot of people died, but it also took an independent political party.
Jill Stein
Where does Donald Trump come from - and it's not just Donald Trump. It's a whole movement of right-wing extremism, not just in this country but also in Europe, which is a response to globalization, to the financialization of our economy, you know, to the trade agreements that throw working people under the bus.
Jill Stein
To millennials, the Democratic Party is the party of endless debt, it is the party of low-wage jobs, it is the part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, it is the party of the KXL pipeline, which was only stopped because, you know, because we, the voters, you know, just worked our bones - you know, worked ourselves to the bone in order to stop it.
Jill Stein
The guy [Donald Trump] has a lot of problems - physical, mental, emotional, cognitive. You know, he comes with a whole lot of baggage, and I think it's pretty obvious.
Jill Stein
Yet we have a voting system that forbids us from actually bringing our values into our vote, which is, in my view, quite a disaster.
Jill Stein
Our fundraising went up about a thousand percent and that's largely been sustained.
Jill Stein
Our Facebook went off the charts and volunteers poured into our campaigns and actually helped us achieve the ballot access status that we have now on the ballot in just about 48 states and this has continued.
Jill Stein
[Hillary Clinton'] transition director being Ken Salazar, I think, indicates that she will continue to be a friend to fracking. It's not possible to solve the climate crisis while we continue to expand fracking.
Jill Stein
I don't pretend to be able to do TV diagnosis, but I think the guy [Donald Trump] has a problem.
Jill Stein
Women do not have to embrace principles of imperialism, corporatism and militarism in order to be a feminist. There is another feminist choice, which is consistent with the broader principles of feminism.
Jill Stein
Democracy cannot function just on who do we fear the most, you know, or who do we hate the most we need an affirmative agenda.
Jill Stein
Democracy needs a moral compass.
Jill Stein
I have always been involved in issue-based politics, not party politics - I was never really originally drawn to party politics.
Jill Stein
We saw recently that Donald Trump has gotten now over $4 billion in free media exposure, Hillary Clinton over $2 billion, and of course I've had almost none.
Jill Stein
The politics of fear has delivered everything we were afraid of. It's important to take a lesson from the days of Richard Nixon, when people stood up under a very oppressive president with a very oppressive Supreme Court.
Jill Stein
In order to fight militarism under Hillary Clinton or under Donald Trump, it's very important that we cast a vote on behalf of peace and on international - and a policy based on international law and human rights.
Jill Stein
That was like the moment of revelation for me that in fact we are not the lunatic fringe.
Jill Stein
We helped generate that international law coming out of a very difficult and hard-won experiences in the First and Second World War. And I think we need to abide by that experience and our good judgment coming out of these catastrophes. We need to support that.
Jill Stein
I feel very sorry for people who are trapped in an abusive relationship and keep making excuses for their abuser.
Jill Stein
Who knows what it is, but he [Donald Trump] is incapable of having a consistent thought or policy.
