More From Michael Ignatieff

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.
Christian Hope Night
Joblessness is a weapon of mass destruction. poverty is a weapon of mass destruction. hunger is a weapon of mass destruction. poor health care is a weapon of mass destruction. poor education is a weapon of mass destruction. discrimination is a weapon of mass destruction. let us abolish such weapons of mass destruction here at home.

We fear the past, present and future. we fear the unknown, we fear not having enough, losing what we have, not having what we want. we fear what will become of us and those that we care for. we fear what others think of us and what they don't think of us. we fear, fear, fear and therefore we are controllable through the manipulation of all that we fear. the present war on terror is the war of fear. no fear, no control.

Poverty is a weapon of mass destruction. joblessness is a weapon of mass destruction, homelessness, a weapon of mass destruction... racism, a weapon of mass destruction, fear, a weapon of mass destruction. we must disarm these weapons and renew our commitment to quality public schools and dedicated teachers and good housing and quality health care and decent jobs and stronger neighborhoods.

Moderation? it's mediocrity, fear, and confusion in disguise. it's the devil's dilemma. it's neither doing nor not doing. it's the wobbling compromise that makes no one happy. moderation is for the bland, the apologetic, for the fence-sitters of the world afraid to take a stand. it's for those afraid to laugh or cry, for those afraid to live or die. moderation...is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew.

I have no fear, no fear at all. i wake up, and i have no fear. i go to bed without fear. fear, fear, fear, fear. yes, 'fear' is a word that is not in my vocabulary.
