You've probably been asked to care about things like HIV/AIDS or T.B. or measles, but diarrhea kills more children than all those three things put together. It's a very potent weapon of mass destruction.

Diarrhea, 90 percent of which is caused by food and water contaminated by excrement, kills a child every fifteen seconds. That's more than AIDS, malaria, or measles, combined. Human feces are an impressive weapon of mass destruction.

I'm not concerned about weapons of mass destruction.

Television is a weapon of mass distractrion.

Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.

I've put up with more humiliation than I care to remember.
