• Estás hablando con un izquierdista. Creo en la redistribución de la riqueza y el poder en el mundo. Creo en la atención hospitalaria universal para todos. Creo que no debería haber ni una sola persona sin hogar en el país más rico del mundo. Y creo que no deberíamos tener una CIA que vaya por ahí avasallando gobiernos y asesinando líderes políticos, trabajando para oligarquías cerradas en todo el mundo para proteger a la oligarquía cerrada aquí en casa.

• It is always the young that make the change. You don't get these ideas when you're middle-aged. Young people have daring, creativity, imagination and personal computers. Above all, what you have as young people that's vitally needed to make social change, is impatience. You want it to happen now. There have to be enough people that say, ‘We want it now, in our lifetime.’ This is your moment. This is your opportunity. Be adventurists in the sense of being bold and daring. Be opportunists and seize this opportunity, this moment in history, to go out and save our country. It's your turn now.

• There is absolutely no greater high than challenging the power structure as a nobody, giving it your all, and winning. I think I've learned that lesson twice now. The essence of successful revolution, be it for an individual, a community of individuals, or a nation, depends on accepting that challenge.
