The media covers what’s new – and millions of people dying is nothing new. So it stays in the background, where it’s easier to ignore.

And so we look away.
Bill Gates

Terminal, crazy and mean. I live in America, that’s hard enough, I don’t have to love it. You do that. Everybody’s got to love something.
