The majority of people were always sitting in the stands. When I find people who are willing to go against the grain, who are willing to make tremendous sacrifices to change an unjust situation - that's what blows my mind out.

I was a fugitive, taking risks with my life. I chose that. I chose to be a volunteer to go to Guatemala when they were having their earthquake, to help people with a team of doctors.

I'm a nomad. A Jewish road warrior. I do not have a concept of home. I wish I did. But I live with the idea that we have to get out of town before dawn.

There is a difference between being self-interested and being selfish. I will never be selfish.

I will say this: In order for the planet to survive, there are going to be acts of ecoterrorism.

We were young, we were foolish, we were arrogant, but we were right.

I’ve had some good times, had some bad. Took some lumps. Scored some points. Half-way through life, at 43, I still say, ‘go for broke.’ No government, no FBI, no judge, no jailer is ever gonna make me say ‘uncle.’ Now, as then, let the game continue. I bet my stake on freedom’s call; I’ll play these cards with no regrets.

Wouldn’t you want to be indicted by the govenment for a high crime? It’s a great thrill. It’s an honor. It’s a compliment. It’s fun. I’m enjoying every minute of it!

When I appear in the Chicago courtroom, I want to be tried not because I support the NLF – which I do – but because I have long hair.

It’s going to be a combination Scopes trial, revolution in the streets, Woodstock Festival and People’s Park, all rolled into one.
