A Tribal Voice of Song, Intelligence | March 14, 2002

 “Whether we see the glass as half full or half empty, it’s to our advantage to recognize that there is water in the glass.” 

“Intelligence is our medicine, our protection, our healing,”

“If we want to change the world or change our lives we need to have an understanding of the value of our intelligence, and respect that value by using it as clearly, coherently and as often as we can.” 

“The lines [of poetry] were my bombs, my explosions, my tears.” 

“The heart of politics is the lack of connection and communication between people. When people can communicate and truly express themselves without being judged or intimidated for what they feel, that creates a type of collectivity.” 

“I find that the majority of people are not satisfied with the way things are going right now. And they feel like they’re the only ones. What they don’t understand is that there are a whole lot of people like them.” ~
