I'm sick of hearing about the haves and the have nots Have some personal accountability The biggest problem with the way that we've been doing things is The more we let you have, the less that I'll be keeping for me Don't give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala Don't really see what all the fuss is about I'm not going to worry about no future generations I'm sure somebody's going to figure it out Don't try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person You haven't had enough to know what it's like You're only angry because you wish you were in my position Now nod your head because you know that I'm right [Lyrics from the song Capital G by Nine Inch Nails]

Dame Deborah James talking about when she moved into end-of-life hospice care at home: "I am not brave - I am not dignified going towards my death - I am simply a scared girl who is doing something she has no choice in but I know I am grateful for the life that I have had." — Dame Deborah James 1982-2022 Source: https://news.sky.com/story/deborah-james-dies-podcaster-and-cancer-campaigner-passes-away-aged-40-12610225
