"I'd like to say people can change anything they want to; and that means everything in the world. People are running about following their little tracks. I am one of them. But we've all gotta stop... just stop following our own little mouse trail. People can do anything; this is something that I'm beginning to learn.

Greed... it ain't going anywhere! They should have that on a big billboard across Times Square. Without people you're nothing.That's my spiel."
Joe Strummer, from the DVD "Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten"
