Every day I walk down the street or hop on the subway, I am reminded that I am a citizen of a very big, incredibly diverse world.
This is the world where our children will live, and technology should reflect that diverse world. With technology and a little love, we can make it a better place for them.
I'm interested in having a relationship with the world that's not my own.
You want entertainment in general, every aspect of it, to be more of a reflection of the diverse world that we live in.
I've never wanted to live in a ghetto or write in a ghetto. I want to write about a world that reflects the one most people live in. Gay people are just one aspect of that.
There's practically no religion that I know of that sees other people in a way that affirms the others' choices. But in our century we're forced to think about a pluralistic world.
I write diverse books because the world we live in is diverse, and I want my books to reflect that truth.
We need to educate young people, give them the possibility to understand that the diversity is positive, to feel and experience it, so that they can then join forces in promoting more diverse world.
The world is much more interesting than any one discipline.
I want all my senses engaged. Let me absorb the world's variety and uniqueness.
We have a lot of work we need to do to make sure all of our children have a better understanding of this diverse and wonderful and beautiful world.
