A handful of quotes

(...women have 2 choices...)
You're either a feminist
or a masochist.

Gloria Steinem

(...on where to begin with making the world a better place...)
Be the change you wish
to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

(...on troubles...)
What you resist, persists.
Carl Jung


This illo is part of a hallowe'en handout I made about the un-truths about dairy and chocolate (you know, how commercial dairy is horrible for your health and chocolate is made using child slave labour, that sort of thing.)

Is that you and Mike in the banner at the top of the page? cute!

I love that Gandhi quote. So many times, I've come across so many people who have this futile view of life and what not. They want change, but relinquish themselves of any responsibility for change. It's someone else's fault, or there must be sweeping change in society for things to improve.

As romantic as the "we're all in this together" concept of society, true change is in the hands of the individual. We are all essentially on our own... (yeesh, now who's sounding futile...? Okay, we're not totally on our own, but if everyone was sitting around waiting for the world to change, nothing would happen.)

So what's the deal with dairy? It's not good for us? ;)
