I think this is the most direct path toward making this country a happy, pleasant land.","author":"Masanobu Fukuoka","tags":["community","equality","equity","fairness","farming","happiness","leisure","revolution","time"],"id":29945,"author_id":"Masanobu+Fukuoka"},{"text":"The thing that breaks the heart of God and makes him to cry out of frustration for his men and their whereabouts is when equity has been squeezed out of the public square.","author":"Sunday Adelaja","tags":["been","breaks","cry","equity","frustration","god","has","heart","him","his","is","makes","men","nd","out","public","square","squeezed","that","their","thing","when","whereabouts"],"id":73917,"author_id":"Sunday+Adelaja"},{"text":"I was lonely, desperate, and angry.
