“I look out upon the world men have made – their legislatures, courts, churches, schools, art, architecture, their politics, their economics – and I don’t see anything I would have done as they have done it. Not one single thing. Their system does not reflect me at all, neither my mode of being in the world nor my world view; rather, it is inimical to all I love, all I desire, all I am. Its every aspect pains me to look at, to think about; it hurts me on all levels of my life; it is not my home.”
