Arundhati RoyAnother world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
About This Quote
I’ve often thought that another world is possible. Not just some fancy, perfect world without problems or strife, but a world where everyone can live together as brothers and sisters. Where we can grow our food in the fields and harvest it with joy instead of toiling away from morning to night only to see most of it go to waste. Where no one goes hungry because enough is available for all, and where mothers are not afraid for their children because there is enough to go around.
