• I've been studying how quickly we can get energy out to the poor countries - a lot of which are in Africa - and how little progress we've made there. There's no more electricity today in sub-Saharan Africa per person than there was 20 years ago.

• En el África subsahariana me encontré con realidades diferentes en lo que respecta a la luz y a cómo rebota en la piel. La forma en que entran en juego los azules y los morados. En la India y Sri Lanka, no fue diferente. Se convirtió en un momento en el que tuve la oportunidad de aprender como pintor a crear el cuerpo en toda su forma, y eso es algo muy material y estético. No es algo conceptual. Es una abstracción.

• My wish and hope, every year, is that people's life chances - their chances of having a happy, prosperous, healthy life for themselves and their family and friends - should not depend on accident of birth. It shouldn't depend on where you're born. It should depend on who you are and what you do. But it shouldn't depend on the chance and the luck of being born in the U.S. or in a poor village in Sub-Saharan Africa or India or wherever it may be.

• Hay mucho estigma en torno al VIH/SIDA. Es un tema difícil, y a las personas que ya se han hecho la prueba y conocen su estado les resulta muy, muy difícil revelar su estado, vivir con ese virus e incluso buscar el tipo de información que necesitan. La experiencia de ir a Sudáfrica hace una década me hizo darme cuenta de la magnitud de la pandemia del VIH/SIDA en el África subsahariana y de cómo estaba afectando a las mujeres y a sus hijos. No he podido apartarme de ello.

• De hecho, la religión permite a la gente imaginar que sus preocupaciones son morales cuando son sumamente inmorales, es decir, cuando al insistir en esas preocupaciones se inflige un sufrimiento innecesario y atroz a seres humanos inocentes. Esto explica por qué los cristianos como usted gastan más energía "moral" oponiéndose al aborto que luchando contra el genocidio. Explica por qué están más preocupados por los embriones humanos que por la promesa de salvar vidas de la investigación con células madre. Y explica por qué puede predicar contra el uso del preservativo en el África subsahariana mientras millones de personas mueren de sida allí cada año. (25)

• Missionaries in the developing world waste a lot of time and money (not to mention the goodwill of non-Christians) proselytizing to the needy. . . . While missionaries do many noble things at great risk to themselves, their dogmatism still spreads ignorance and death. By contrast, volunteers for secular organizations . . . do not waste . . . time telling people about the virgin birth of Jesus. Nor do they tell people in sub-Saharan Africa - where nearly four million people die from AIDS every year - that condom use is sinful.
