It makes no sense that a piece of chicken meat which has been flown 7,000 miles costs less than an identical piece of chicken from two miles down the road.

More than the cost, whether economic or the maiming, suffering and loss of life, death; war just seems to be a huge waste of time.

You need to be quiet now and stop wasting our air.

The pragmatic solutions to almost any situation or problem is what endears me to the Thai people.

A conceptual, intangible, idealogical foe is a necessary evil in the modern age for most governments where the majority of ordinary people balk at the concept of conscription, rationing or death on an industrial scale and where the motivations of national pride and victory can stimulate a flagging economy.

The universality of mankind, our thoughts, our motivations for a better life, a better world, our values, our passions, means black or white, rich or poor, we are not dissimilar.
