Nobody had a credit card when I was a kid. No one had credit card debt. But these big companies and banks wanted to know how to get more money out of people - get them charging things.

One thing I learned as a journalist is that there is at least one disgruntled person in every workplace in America - and at least double that number with a conscience. Hard as they try, they simply can't turn their heads away from an injustice when they see one taking place.

I ask all Americans with a conscience to shun anything and everything to do with the murderous state of Georgia.

One thing I've learned about death threats is that they're great, actually.

That's really what they rant to do, yell at you, and they want to threaten you.

I was kind of a strange child. My parents knew early on that something must have been wrong with me. I crawled backwards until I was two, but had Kennedy's inaugural address memorized by the time I was six.

I was taught from a very early age that it was probably the most American thing you can do is to question what's going on and to try to fix things that you see that aren't right. I believed that as a young person, and I believe that today.

We should all spend some time of our life doing service to our country. To me, I would give up a couple of years.

I never know why these people talk to me. I would not talk to me.

Occupy has to continue as a bold, in-your-face movement - occupying banks, corporate headquarters, board meetings, campuses and Wall Street itself. We need weekly - if not daily - nonviolent assaults right on Wall Street.

Most liberals I know were for invading Afghanistan right after 9/11.

If you reduce the guns and the ammo, you'll reduce the murders.

I believe that when you provide information to people, they become less fearful and they will engage more in their democracy if they are empowered with information.

I don't want to do anything that violates my own personal code of ethics and morals.
