My mother raised me and there was some painful and difficult times, because she was pursuing a career and also very actively involved in expressing her political views.

People who thought that she was busy going around trying to stir up difficulty where there was none or less than she imagined, were quite critical of her.

And what have you laymen made of hell? A kind of penal servitude for eternity, on the lines of your convict prisons on earth, to which you condemn in advance all the wretched felons your police have hunted from the beginning - enemies of society, as you call them. You're kind enough to include the blasphemers and the profane. What proud or reasonable man could stomach such a notion of God's justice?

A sustainable world could be very much better than the one we live in today. — Donella H. Meadows
