Weird people follow you in the streets, you can't sit alone in a restaurant or a cafe and read a book in peace, and I think everybody values those moments of being alone.

I always thought of myself as a moderate liberal, a fighter for peace and justice. I never thought of myself as being all that far out.

When you know people are really at peace with who they are and what they do, they collaborate and want to help you to improve.

But in terms of how people live together, how we minimize the prospects of conflict and maximize the prospects of peace, the place of religion in our society today is essential.

That idea of peace and love toward humanity shouldn't be nationalistic or denominational. It should be a chief concern for all mankind.
