Are we supposed to move around a lot or stay perfectly still?! What are the rules of Daniel Day-Lewis?!”

It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace.”
“At times unpopular measures are needed in order to change behaviour.”
