Text Quotes
I don’t put myself above anyone, and I have as many shortcomings as any non-believer. I just choose to turn to a higher power to help me gain wisdom and, I hope, improve over time  (Van Jones Quotes) The main piece of technology in the green economy is a caulk gun  (Van Jones Quotes) No one is above the law, and no one is beneath the law  (Van Jones Quotes) When it gets harder to love, love harder  (Van Jones Quotes) If we keep pulling death from the ground, we will reap death from the skies  (Van Jones Quotes) Stop using your phones and laptops as toys and use them to start a revolution  (Van Jones Quotes) Now is not the time to shrink from the challenge of saving our only home in the universe. Now is not the time to pull into ourselves, retreating into either survivalist or escapist mode. To the contrary, this is the time for titans, not turtles. Now is the time to open our arms, expand our horizons, and dream big. Big problems require big solutions  (Van Jones Quotes) Clean coal represents a breakthrough in the marketing of coal, but not in the science of burning coal  (Van Jones Quotes) I’m willing to forgo the cheap satisfaction of the radical pose for the deep satisfaction of radical ends  (Van Jones Quotes) We should use the transition to a better energy strategy as an opportunity to create a better economy and a better country all around  (Van Jones Quotes) It’s in that convergence of spiritual people becoming active and active people becoming spiritual that the hope of humanity now rests  (Van Jones Quotes) A green economy begins to replace some of the clunking and chugging of ugly machines with the wise effort of beautiful, skilled people. That means more jobs  (Van Jones Quotes) To change our laws and culture, the green movement must attract and include the majority of all people, not just the majority of affluent people  (Van Jones Quotes) I cannot in good conscience ask my colleagues to expend precious time and energy defending or explaining my past. We need all hands on deck, fighting for the future  (Van Jones Quotes) We need a much deeper understanding of exactly what it is our industrial society, in its present creation, is jeopardizing. We need a more profound perception of what is at stake  (Van Jones Quotes) Each and every one of us should stop playing small and license ourselves to become one of the giants of the new century. We will need champions by the truckload  (Van Jones Quotes) If we stand for change, we can spark a popular movement with power, influence, magic and genius  (Van Jones Quotes) We have the chance to build this new energy economy in ways that reflect our deepest values of inclusion, diversity, and equal opportunity for everyone  (Van Jones Quotes) We just want government to be a smart, supportive, reliable partner to the forces that are working for good in this country  (Van Jones Quotes) We pull out of the ground death, we burn death in our power plants, and then we act shocked when we get death in the form of oil spills and global warming  (Van Jones Quotes) Our point of view is, lets not be so elitist that we can’t honor good, hard, dignified, ennobling work: people working with their hands, building things, putting up solar panels, weatherizing homes, working on organic agriculture, building wind farms. We don’t have robots in society, so somebody has to do that work. Lets make sure that the people who can use that work get a chance to do it. I see that as a first step toward bigger and better things  (Van Jones Quotes) All the big ideas for getting us onto a lower carbon trajectory involve a lot of people doing a lot of work, and that’s been missing from the conversation. This is a great time to go to the next step and ask, well, who’s going to do the work? Who’s going to invest in the new technologies? What are ways to get communities wealth, improved health, and expanded job opportunities out of this improved transition?  (Van Jones Quotes) In a democracy, you won’t always get to have your way. But you should always get to have your say  (Van Jones Quotes) Americans need to see people who are honestly trying to learn from each other, even as we make our own points powerfully and fight for our own values and policies  (Van Jones Quotes) Ocean’s remarkable stories, depth of commitment, and eloquent communication make him a fantastic resource for conferences, universities, and indeed everyone who wants a potent dose of grounded inspiration  (Van Jones Quotes)
