“I do not think we will see a stateless society in my lifetime. But I am sure we will not see a state that conforms to the minarchists' ideals. The closer we get, the better, but I see no reason not to aspire for the best government as Thoreau imagined it: none at all. It's certainly more consistently idealistic than what the minarchists imagine, and yet it's at least possible, whereas the existence of a lasting, minimal state is a hopeless fantasy.”
“The young people look great on television. Theyâ€™re youthful and have a lot of zip and energy, but when you see them live, they can only do about 20 minutes because they havenâ€™t got the training to hold an audience for an hour and a half or so.”
“Wherever you go, man-made things are man-made, but youâ€™ve got to get out and see Godâ€™s beauty of the world.”
“You can't change conditions - just the way you deal with them.”
“But you have to live in the present. You have to take the old and make it new -- that's my point.”
“I really see myself as a homegirl. Wales is my first home. London is my second home - I've been there 14 years now.”

“Democracy, or "majority rules," is another trick of our society to force us to do things we don't want to do. Even if we actually lived in a pure democracy (and the system we do live in is not even close), where everyone got a single vote on every subject, forcing the minority to obey the majority is no different to one man, if he had the power, forcing everyone else to do what he wanted them to-simply because he could.”
