More From Arundhati Roy

Theologians talk about a prevenient grace that precedes grace itself and allows us to accept it. i think there must also be a prevenient courage that allows us to be brave - that is, to acknowledge that there is more beauty than our eyes can bear, that precious things have been put into our hands and to do nothing to honor them is to do great harm. and therefore, this courage allows us, as the old men said, to make ourselves useful. it allows us to be generous, which is another way of saying exactly the same thing.
Eye Men Thinking
Alas! the road to anywhere is pitfalled with disaster; there's hunger, want, and weariness, yet o we loved it so! as on we tramped exultantly, and no man was our master, and no man guessed what dreams were ours, as, swinging heel and toe, we tramped the road to anywhere, the magic road to anywhere, the tragic road to anywhere, such dear, dim years ago.
Dream Men Years
I want to make activism a bigger part of my life, while hopefully maintaining the opportunity to help out causes that i really care about. and being an actor allows me to do that. shooting a cisco commercial allows me to do that. i mean, doing all these things allows me to talk about these issues. but don't think there aren't those moments where i'm like, "what am i doing? i have to quit my job and chain myself to a tree." believe me, i have those moments.
Believe Mean Thinking
I am far more of a loner than people would imagine. but i am the most gregarious and socially interactive loner you ever met. the thing is, i am fascinated by people's stories and i'm very talkative and can't ever say no to anything or anyone, so i tend to over-socialize, to give away too much of my time to the many people i adore.
Giving People Loner
I never wanted to grow a thicker skin; i felt a real sense of pride in my thin skin, and in a weird way, i still do, because it's my thin skin that allows me to empathize with other people. it's the thing that allows me to create vulnerable art. it's the thing that allows me to create other feelings and make songs that actually grab people and touch people. i feel like i've spent my life fighting that thicker skin because i don't want to become an embittered asshole.

I think it is possible for the world to see a palestinian state - i'm not going to put a time frame on it - that is contiguous, that allows freedom of movement for its people, that allows for trade with other countries, that allows the creation of businesses and commerce so that people have a better life.

The late rebellion in massachusetts has given more alarm than i think it should have done. calculate that one rebellion in thirteen states in the course of eleven years, is but one for each state in a century and a half. no country should be so long without one. nor will any degree of power in the hands of government prevent insurrections.
Wisdom Country Thinking
After the fall of the soviet union, if you start the clock, then 47 journalists, reporters, cameramen, photographers have been killed in russia since the fall of communism. that makes it the third most deadly country on earth to practice journalism. that's not a record to be proud of.
Country Fall Practice
I also want to take cognizance of the fact that this flight was made out in the open with all the possibilities of failure, which would have been damaging to our country's prestige. because great risks were taken in that regard, it seems to me that we have some right to claim that this open society of ours which risked much, gained much.
Country Taken Risk
Shall we then judge a country by the majority, or by the minority? by the minority, surely. 'tis pedantry to estimate nations by the census, or by square miles of land, or other than by their importance to the mind of the time.
