I don't know if 'integrity' is quite the right word. But whatever it's called, I have great admiration of this man's ability to stand by his convictions despite great personal cost. Agree with him or not, you have to admit that the world would be a better place with more of his kind around. Watch both parts, each is about 45 min long.

quotes
- Human nature suggests that if you build it, they will use it (referring to military tools and toys) -- Heather Digby Parton
- The face of all the world is changed, I think, since first I heard the footsteps of thy soul -- Elizabeth Barrett Browning
- Our biggest tragedy is that our children learned the logic of war
- What you do today has everything to do with where you'll be in six months
- Meaning in life is not given but is something actively created -- Viktor Frankl
- No idea has ever been defeated by force — not by siege, not by bombardment, not by being flattened with tank treads and not by marine commandos. To defeat an idea, you have to offer a better idea, a more attractive and acceptable one -- Amos Oz
- 'What Is' may hinder 'What Might Be' for a while, but cannot stay the tide of progress
- Out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase 'each other' doesn't make any sense. --Rumi
