We've got to get in to get out.
Peter Gabriel

The earthly power sucks shadowed milk from sleepy tears undone, from nippled skin as smooth as silk the bugles blown as one.
Peter Gabriel

From the pain come the dream From the dream come the vision From the vision come the people From the people come the power From this power come the change.

People have the strength to overcome their bodies. Their beauty is in their minds.

Holding still for a moment, what a moment this is, Oh for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss

The UN Declaration of Human Rights laid down what any person might reasonably expect, yet there are remarkably few people who enjoy these rights. With cameras in the hands of activists and meaningful distribution of those images, we will witness what really goes on in this world and hopefully want to change it.

All of the buildings, all of those cars Were once just a dream In somebodys head.

I come to you defenses down with the trust of a child.
