(Joan) "It's not just surviving, but cooperating. Cooperation is Christianity at its best. We depend upon each other. When we are grateful for the whole, we can thrive in civil society."
(Day) "Trump Republicans hail to "make America great again" through private initiative and competition.

I have found that cooperative democratic socialism in Sweden has been a wonderful way to rationally plan a thriving civil society."
(Harry) "Part of our humanity is being enlarged and informed by our differences, not retrenchment into hate and delusion."
