"There is never only one, of anyone"

-- Margaret Atwood

“Anytime you get a group of people, they're going to have different ideas and they're going to want to approach situations in different ways.”
“I think that people, despite my law enforcement background, view me as taking these consistently progressive stands, and I think that, philosophically, there is a desire to get at that person.

I spoke out against such methods more emphatically than anyone else, and when no one dared do so.”
