Once you lose attachment to how you want things to be because you realize you don't control anything, there's a curiously liberating aspect of that. I've always been a control freak, I've always felt that if I try hard enough, everyone I love will be kept safe and everything will be okay. Being shown, in such brutal terms, that that's simply not the way it works, in someways, it messed me up.

Overall, The Population Bomb was probably too optimistic. I was writing about climate change - Anne and I actually wrote the book.

Bush has not read enough books to have a developed moral sense. The fewer books you read, the easier it is to become fundamental. In some ways my antiwar stand here is also a stand on anti-literacy.

Be spiritually independent enough that your relationship with the Savior doesn't depend on your circumstances or on what other people say and do.
